PROGRAMMABLE ELECTRONIC PATTERN SEWER
Thank you very much for buying a BROTHER sewing machine. Before using your new machine, please read the safety
instructions below and the explanations given in the instruction manual.
With industrial sewing m achines, it is nor mal to carr y out work whil e position ed directl y in front of m oving parts such as
the needle and thread take- up lever, and consequently there is a lways a danger of injury that can be caused by these
parts. Follow the instructions from training personnel and instructors regarding safe and correct operation before
operating the machine so that you will know how to use it correctly.

If the power switch and air need to be left on when
carrying out some adjustment, be extremely
careful to observe all safety precautions.
Hold the machine head with both ha nds by two or
more people 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 pulle y side
from above, as this could cause the machine head
to topple over, which may result in personal inj ury
or damage to the machine.
Use only the pro per re plac em ent par ts 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.

3. INSTALLATION
CAUTION
Machine installation should onl y 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 65 kg
(311F-0), 70 kg (311F-L, 326F-0). The installation
should be car ried out by two or more peopl e.
Do not connect the power cor d until installatio n 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 ha nds by two or
more peple when tilting it b ack or r eturning it to its
original position. Furth er more, 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.
All cords should be sec ured at least 25 mm awa y
from any moving parts. Furthermore, do not
excessively bend the ca ble or secure it too firm ly
staples, otherwise there is the danger that fire or
electric shocks could occur.
Install the belt cover and the f rame 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 oi l or eat the gr ease
under any circumstances, as they can cause
vomiting and diarrhoea.
keep the oil out of the reach of children.

* If using a commercially-available table, process it as shown in the illustration below.
Note
The thickness of the table should b e at least 4 0 mm , and it should be strong enough t o bear the weight
and vibration of the sewing machine.
If the distance A between the insides of the legs is less than 740 m m, move the control box installation
position to the left (B=192 mm).
Check that the control box is at leas t 1 0 m m awa y fr om the leg. If the c ontrol b ox and leg ar e touc h ing, it

Caution: When opening the cover, hold it securely so that it does not fall down.
2. Install the c ontrol box with the four acc essory bolts (4), spacers (5), flat washers (6) and nuts (7) as shown in the

* At this time, leave a gap of approximately 1 mm between the work table and the top of the box.
3. Close the cover s (panel mounting assem bly (2) and main P.C. board mounting plate (3)), and tighten them with the
screws (1).
* The main P.C. board mounting plate (3) will be opened again during "3-11. Connecting the cords", so provisionally
tighten it with the screw (1).
4. Install the power switch (8) with the two screws (9).
5. Secure the power switch cord with the five staples (10).
Note
Secure the motor cord with staples in such a way that it does not cross over the outlet port of the cooling fan (11)
Some specifications are not s upplied with an access ory power switch (10). For these specif ications, connect a
power switch which satisfies the necessary regulations in the country of use.
