4. LUBRICATION
CAUTION
Turn off the power switch before starting lubricating, otherwise the machine may operate if the start switch is
pressed by mistake, which could result in injury.
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.
Use only specified Brother oil (Nisseki Mitsubishi Sewing Lube 10 N; VG10) for the machine oil.

base of the wick and the wick before using the sewing machine for the first time, and also after long periods of non-use.
When oiling, some oil will get onto the thread. Carry out a test sewing to ensure that your material does not get stained
with oil.
