As shown in the illustration below, hold the machine at the positions indicated in the label by two or more persons to carry the machine.
PREPARATION
Machine holding position
(indicated in the label)
INSTALLATION
Place the embroidery machine on a rugged base so that the table will be level.
At this time, make sure to place attached vibration-preventive rubbers (H)
under the adjuster foot (1). The rubbers will effectively prevent the machine
from moving on the table or vibrating.
If the machine is not stable or it is not level, adjust the level of
the machine after loosening the nut (2) (4 places) of the adjuster
foot (1). After adjusting the machine level, tighten the nut (2) to
lock the adjuster foot.
WARNING
!
CARRYING
Carry the machine with
at least two people.
DO NOT hold it by parts
other than those specified.
Dropping may cause bodily
injury and will damage
the machine.

SETTING THE UNDER THREAD
1.Orient the bobbin (1) with its thread facing in the direction, specified by the arrow symbol, and put it in the bobbin
case (2).
2.Route the thread through the thread groove (3) in the bobbin case, under the thread tension spring (4) and the
thread guard (5).
3.Raise the "lever" (6) on the bobbin case and then install it in the rotary hook.
NOTE: The standard under thread tension is 25 to 30 g (0.25 to 0.3 N) for the carbonized yarn #120.
The thread tension can be adjusted with the tension adjusting screw of the bobbin case. Turning the screw
clockwise tightens the thread and turning it counterclockwise loosens the thread tension.
For adjustment, suspend three 25-cent coins from the bobbin case by taping them to the thread as shown in
the illustration below. If thread is pulled out slightly when the bobbin case is gently shaken up and down, the
thread tension is between 25 and 30 g (0.25 and 0.3 N).
