3. PREPARATION
CAUTION
Machine installation should only be carried out by
a qualified technician.
Contact your Brother dealer or a qualified
electrician for any electrical work that may need to
be done.
The sewing machine head weighs more than 200
kg. The installation should be carried out by two or
more people.
Do not connect the power cord until installation is
complete, otherwise the machine may operate if
the foot switch is depressed by mistake, which
could result in injury.
Be sure to connect the ground. If the ground
connection is not secure, you run the risk of
receiving a serious electric shock.
Hold the machine head with both hands by two or
more peple when tilting it back or returning it to its
original position. Furthermore, after tilting back the
machine head, do not push the face plate side or
the pulley side from above, as this could cause the
machine head to topple over, which may result in
personal injury or damage to the machine.
Install the belt cover and the frame side cover to
the machine head and motor.
If using a work table which has casters, the
casters should be secured in such a way so that
they cannot move.
Be sure to wear protective goggles and gloves
when handling the lubricating oil and grease, so
that they do not get into your eyes or onto your
skin, otherwise inflammation can result.
Furthermore, do not drink the oil or eat the grease
under any circumstances, as they can cause
vomiting and diarrhoea.
keep the oil out of the reach of children.
