Setting Up the Machine
The procedures for setting up the machine are described below. If the machine is not set up correctly, it may
shake or produce loud noises and the embroidery will not be sewn correctly. An optional sewing stand is also
available.
Setup and transporting precautions
● The temperature of the operating environment should be between 5 °C (40 °F) and 40 °C
(104 °F) . If the machine is operated in an environment that is either too cold or too hot, the
machine may malfunction.
● Do not use the machine in a location where it will be exposed to direct sunlight, otherwise
the machine may malfunction.
● Set up the machine with four feet completely in contact with the desk or table, so that the
machine is level.
● Do not put anything under the embroidery machine that could block the ventilation slots at
the bottom toward the back and do not allow lint or dust to accumulate in the ventilation
slots, otherwise the machine’s motor may overheat, resulting in a fire or in damage to the
machine.
● The machine weight is approximately 37 kg (81 Ibs.). The transporting or setting up of the
embroidery machine should be performed by two people.
● When transporting the machine, be sure to lift it from the bottom at the indicated positions
by two people. Lifting the machine from any other area may damage the machine or result in
the machine falling, which could cause injuries.
● When lightning occurs, turn off the machine and unplug the power supply cord. Lightning
may cause the machine to malfunction.
● Do not plug in the power supply cord until setup of the machine is completed, otherwise
injuries may result if the start/stop button is accidentally pressed and the machine starts
sewing.
● When lubricating the machine, wear protective eyeglasses and gloves to prevent the oil or
grease from getting into your eyes or on your skin. Do not put the oil or grease into your
mouth. Keep the oil and grease out of the reach of children.
