Transportation, packing and storage

5.01

Transportation to customer's premises

 

Within the Federal Republic of Germany, complete machines (with table and motor) are

 

delivered without packing.

 

Machines without table (only sewing heads) and machines intended for export are packed.

5.02

Transportation inside the customer's premises

 

The manufacturer cannot be made liable for transportation inside the customer's premises

 

nor to other operating locations. It must be ensured that the machines are only transported

 

in an upright position.

5.03

Installation and commissioning

The machine must only be installed and commissioned by qualified personnel!

All relevant safety regulations must be strictly adhered to!

If the machine is delivered without a table, be sure to use a stand and table top that can hold the weight of the machine with its motor.

It is very important to ensure that the stand of the machine is firm and steady, also during sewing.

8.01 Installation

The site where the machine is installed must be provided with suitable connections for electric current.

It must be ensured that the standing surface of the machine site is firm and horizontal, and that sufficient lighting is provided for.

For packing and transportation reasons the table top is in the lowered position.

The table height is adjusted as described below.

Installation and commissioning

8.02 Commissioning

Check the machine, particularly the electrical wiring, for any damage.

Clean the machine thoroughly and then oil it or fill in oil (see Chapter 10 Care and maintenance).

Have a mechanic check whether the motor of the machine can be operated with the available power supply, and that the motor is correctly connected in the junction box. If there are any discrepancies the machine must not be operated under any circumstances.

 

The machine may only be connected to an earthed socket!

 

● When the machine is running, the balance wheel must turn towards the operator. If it does

 

not, have the motor connection changed by a mechanic.

 

● Machines with pneumatic equipment must be connected to the compressed air supply.

 

The pressure gauge should indicate a pressure of 6 bar. If necessary, adjust to the correct

 

setting (see Chapter 10.05 Checking adjusting the air pressure).
