11. Confirm that the voltage and phase (single- or 3-phase) are correct by checking them against the ratings shown on the motor nameplate.
12,In case of maintenance, inspection, or repair, be sure to turn the power switch
and confirm that the sewing machine and the motor have completely stopped before starting the work. (In case of the clutch motor, it continues rotating for a while by the inertia even after turning the power switch. So, be careful.)

CAUTION BEFORE OPERATION
WARNING:
To avoid malfunction and damage of the machine, confirm the following.
Clean the sewing machine thoroughly before using it for the first time. Remove all dust collected on the sewing machine during the transportation. Confirm that the voltage and phase are correct. Confirm that the power plug is properly connected. Never use the sewing machine in the state where the voltage type is different from the designated one. The direction of rotation of the sewing machine is counterclockwise as observed from the handwheel side. Be careful not to rotate it in reverse direction.

7. ADJUSTING THE AMOUNT OF OIL ( OIL SPLASHES ) IN THE HOOK
WARNING:
Be extremely careful about the operation of the machine since the amount of oil has to be checked by turning the hook at a high speed.
When carrying out the procedure described below in 2, remove the slide plate and take extreme
*
caution not to allow your fingers to come in contact with the hook.
1) If the machine has not been sufficiently warmed up for operation, make the machine run idle for approximately three minutes. (Moderate intermittent operation)
2) Place the amount of oil (oil spots) confirmation paper under the hook while the sewing machine is in operation.
3) Confirm the height of the oil surface in the oil reservoir is within the range between
"HIGH" and "LOW.
4) Confirmation of the amount of oil should be completed in five seconds.
(Check the period of time with a watch)
Sample showing the apprpriate amount of oil
1) The amount of oil shown in the samples on the left should be finely adjusted in accordance with sewing processes. Be careful not to excessively increase / decrease the amount of oil in the hook. (If the amount of oil is too small, the hook will be seized (the hook will be hot). If the amount of oil is too much, the sewing product may be stained with oil.)
2) Adjust the amount of oil in the hook so that the
oil amount (oil splashes) should not change while checking the oil amount three times (on the three sheets of paper).

ยท Adjusting the amount of oil ( oil spots ) in the hook
C
1) Turning the oil amount adjustment screw attached on the hook driving shaft front bushing in the "+" direction (in direction ) will increase the amount of oil (oil spots) in the hook, or in the irection (in direction ) will decrease it.
2) After the amount of oil in the hook has been properly adjusted with the oil amount adjustment screw, make the sewing machine run idle for approximately 30 seconds to check the amount of oil in the hook.

forward the feed rocker shaft by 90 , as standard).
2) To tilt the feed dog with its front up in order to prevent puckering, loosen the setscrew, and turn the feed bar shaft 90 in the direction of the arrow, using a screwdriver.
3) To tilt the feed dog with its front down in order to prevent uneven material feed, turn the feed bar shaft 90 in the opposite direction from the arrow. (The standard tilt for 251-140040H.)
Whenever the feed dog tilt is adjusted,
the feed dog height will be changed.
So, it is necessary to check the height

WARNING:
To avoid possible personal injury due to abrupt start of the machine, turn off the power to the machine and check to be sure that the motor has totally stopped rotating in prior.
1) Loosen screws and in feed eccentric cam , move the feed eccentric cam in the direction of the arrow or opposite direction of the arrow, and firmly tighten the screws.
2) For the standard adjustment, adjust so that the top surface of feed dog and the top end of needle eyelet are flush with the top surface of throat plate when the feed dog descends below the throat plate.
3) To advance the feed timing in order to prevent uneven material feed, move the feed eccentric cam
in the direction of the arrow.
4)To delay the feed timing in order to increase stitch tightness, move the feed eccentric cam in the opposite direction from the arrow.
