x Notes on safety
Wait at least 5 minutes after turning off the power switch and disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet before opening the face plate of the control box. Touching areas where high voltages are present can result in severe injury.
DANGER
CAUTION
Installation
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 weights more than BAS-311E60kg,BAS-311EL·326E· 326EL65kg. 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 start switch is pressed by mistake, which could result in injury.
Be sure to connect the ground. If the ground connection is not secure, you run a high risk of receiving a serious electric shock, and problems with correct operation may also occur.
Sewing
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.
Avoid setting up the sewing machine near sources of strong electrical noise such as high-frequency welding equipment. If this precaution is not taken, incorrect ma­chine operation may re
Have two people present to hold the machine head with both their hands when tilting it back or returning it to its original position.
This sewing machine should only be used by operators who have received the neccessary training in safe use beforehand.
The sewing machine should not be used for any applications other than sewing.
Attach all safety devices before using the sewing machine. If the machine is used without these devices attached, injury may result.
Turn off the power switch at the following times, otherwise the machine may operate if the start switch is pressed by mistake, which could result in injury.
• When not using the machine
• When leaving the machine unattended
ii
Do not touch any of the moving parts or press any objects against the machine while sew­ing, as this may result in personal injury or damage to the machine.
If an error occurs in machine operation, or if abnormal noises or smells are noticed, im­mediately turn off the power switch. Then contact your nearese Brother dealer or a qualified technician.
If the machine develops a problem, contact your nearest Brother dealer or a qualified technician.
If using a work table which has casters, the casters chould be secured in such a way so that they cannot move.
CAUTION
Cleaning
Turn off the power switch before starting any cleaning work, otherwise the machine may operate if the start switch is pressed by mis­take, which could result in injury.
Maintenance and inspection
Maintenance and inspection of the sewing machine should only be carried out by a qualified technician.
Ask your Brother dealer or a qualified elec­trician to carry out any maintenance and inspection of the electrical system.
Turn off the power switch and disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet at the following times, otherwise the machine may operate if the start switch is pressed by mis­take, which could result in injury.
• When carrying out inspection, adjustment and maintenance
• When replacing consumable parts such as the rotary hook and knife
Disconnect the air hoses from the air sup­ply and wait for the needle on the pressure gauge to drop to "0" before carrying out in­spection, adjustment and repair of any parts which use the pneumatic equipment.
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.
If the power switch and air need to be left on when carrying out some adjustment, be ex­tremely careful to observe all safety precau­tions.
Use only the proper replacement parts as specified by Brother.
If any safety devices have been removed, be absolutely sure to re-install them to their origi­nal positions and check that they operate correctly before using the machine.
Any problems in machine operation which result from unauthorized modifications to the machine will not be covered by the warranty.
Have two people present to hold the machine head with both their hands when tilting it back or returning it to its original position.
