If a corresponding value has to be fixed for the activated function, this can be carried out
with the corresponding +/- keys 3.
By pressing and holding the corresponding +/- key, firstly the numerical value displayed abo-

8 Mounting and commissioning the machine
The machine must only be mounted and commissioned by qualified personnel!
All relevant safety regulations are to be observed!
If the machine is delivered without a table, be sure that the frame and the table
top which you intend to use can hold the weight of the machine and the motor.
It must be ensured that the supporting structure is sufficiently sturdy, even du-
ring sewing operations.
8.01 Installation
The site where the machine is installed must be provided with suitable connections for the
electric current, see Chapter 3 Specifications.
It must also be ensured that the standing surface of the machine site is firm and horizontal,
and that sufficient lighting is provided.
8.01.01 Adjusting the table height
For packing reasons the table top is in the lowered position. The table height is
adjusted as described below..

8.02 Commissioning
●
Clean the machine thoroughly and then check the oil level ( see Chapter 12 Care and
Maintenance ).
●
Check the machine, in particular the electric leads and pneumatic connection tubes, for
any damage.
●
Have mechanics ensure that the machine’s motor can be operated with the available
electricity supply.
●
Connect the machine to the compressed air system. The manometer should show a
pressure of 6 bar.

8.04 Setting the seam pattern size
After the machine has been switched on for the first time, first of all the seam
pattern sizes set in the machine control unit must be checked and corrected if
necessary. The seam pattern size depends on the cut-out size of the bed plate
and is set with parameter "204". If these instructions are not observed there is
a risk of severe damage to the machine!

Pfaff does not guarantee that all selectable stitch formations can be sewn
reliably in all the possible needle penetration point combinations.
To achieve the best possible sewing result, the fi rst penetration point should
be at the back and the fi rst tack should be sewn in the X-direction. If necessa-
ry use the soft start function (parameter 501) for a better sewing start and add
extra stitches (parameter 503) at the seam start, or change the direction of the
formation! A reduction of the maximum speed can also improve the sewing
result.

11.03 Program Management
In the program management the program numbers of the programs filed in the machine
memory or on the inserted SD-memory card are displayed. The programs (seam patterns)
can be deleted or copied. Commercially available SD-memory cards with a storage capacity
of max. 2 GByte can be inserted in the control panel. The machine data is stored in the
file "MD" in the sub-directory \P3307. The button-hole programs are filed as follows:
The 2-hole button programs are in directory \P3307\P2 in the files 01 – 99.
The 3-hole button programs are in directory \P3307\P3 in the files 01 – 99.
The 4-hole button programs are in directory \P3307\P4 in the files 01 – 99.
The 6-hole button programs are in directory \P3307\P6 in the files 01 – 99.
The stem-wrapping programs are in directory \P3307\PU in the files 01 – 99.
The desired button type is selected by pressing the corresponding key. A description of how
to insert or remove the SD-memory card is given in Chapter 9.06 Inserting/removing the
SD-memory card.
Should the SD-memory cards need to be formatted on the PC, they must be formatted
in the format "FAT16". Alternatively the SD-memory cards can also be formatted on the
corresponding machine with the formatting function, see Chapter 11.03.08 Formatting the
SD-memory card.

All following adjustments are based on a fully assembled machine and may only be
carried out by expert staff trained for this purpose.
Machine covers, which have to be removed and replaced to carry out checks and
adjustments, are not mentioned in the text.
The order of the following chapters corresponds to the most logical work sequence for
machines which have to be completely adjusted. If only specific individual work steps are
carried out, both the preceding and following chapters must be observed.
Screws, nuts indicated in brackets ( ) are fastenings for machine parts, which must be
loosened before adjustment and tightened again afterwards.
