PRECAUTIONS

SAFETY

PRECAUTIONS

When installing the machine, make sure to place it on the attached vibration-preventive rubbers (H). Falling the machine may cause injury as well as breakdown of the machine.

Do not damage, modify, heat or apply undue force to the power cords and other connection cables. Otherwise the cables may be damaged causing fire and electric shock.

Insert the power cord plug fully. Incomplete insertion could cause fire or electric shock.

Keep away electric and electronic units from water and oils. Exposure them to water or oils leads to short circuits, causing fire and electric shock. If water or oils enter the electric/electronic units, shut off the power by the power switch, shut off the source of power supply and contact your TOYOTA dealer.

When disconnecting the power cord from the receptacle, pull the cord while holding the plug. Pulling the power cord by holding the cord may damage the cord and the plug, causing fire and electric shock.

The machine must be switched off at the mains switch on the power supply or by unplugging it from the incoming mains supply, when:

• Sewing implements (thread, needle, bobbin, etc) have to be replaced or adjusted

• Threading a needle, bobbin, etc

• If the workplace is left unattended

• Maintenance work has to be performed

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.

ATTENTION

Il faut être au moins 2personnes pour porter la machine. Ne pas tenir la machine par une autre partie que celle indiquées. Une chute peut vous blesser et endommager la 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

PREPARATION

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).

value

Satin stitch adjustment is made according to the set adjustment value for stitch width of 1.5 mm or larger. For satin stitch width less than this limit, satin stitch width

is adjusted with a value smaller than the set value. By changing the setting of DIP switch (DSW2-4) at the operation panel, this limit width can be changed so that satin stitch adjustment is possible for 0.6 mm or larger stitch width.

TRACE

This function makes the hoop travel along the rectangle that surrounds the embroidery range of the design data that has been set as the embroidery data.

Tracing will start from the design start point and move to the rear right, rear left, front left and front right corners of the embroidery range, then return to the design start point.

If repeat is set, the function traces the entire embroidery range.

TROUBLESHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE

DAILY MAINTENANCE

WARNING

Turn OFF the power switch before starting maintenance work. Otherwise, you may sustain electric shock or injury caused by being caught by the embroidery machine.

Only properly trained personnel are allowed to perform maintenance work. Otherwise, a worker may sustain electric shock or injury.

Before starting the machine after maintenance work, attach all covers and other parts detached for maintenance work correctly as before. Otherwise, a worker may sustain electric shock or injury.

Do not attempt to repair by yourself. Otherwise, a worker may sustain electric shock or injury.

Do not modify the machine. Otherwise, a worker may sustain electric shock or injury.

Consult your TOYOTA dealer when you need a repair on the machine.

Maintenance Stop

Maintenance stop requests some kind of maintenance work and it is not the stop due to the occurrence of an error.

Maintenance stop message is displayed at the start of embroidery (after the pressing of the START key).

If the message shown in the right appears at the start of embroidery, supply lubricating oil to the rail on rotary hook (Page 88). After supplying lubricating oil as instructed, press the STOP key to exit the maintenance mode and continue normal embroidery work.

If the message shown in the right appears at the start of embroidery, supply grease to the presser foot cam, take-up lever drive cam and take-up lever roller (Page 89). After supplying grease as instructed, press the STOP key to exit the maintenance mode and continue normal embroidery work.

If the message shown in the right appears at the start of embroidery, supply grease to the presser foot cam, take-up lever drive cam, take-up lever roller, needle case linear section and X-/Y-axis drive system (Page 89). After supplying grease as instructed, press the STOP key to exit the maintenance mode and continue normal embroidery work.

You need to consult your TOYOTA dealer about the greasing because it requires removal of covers, or others.

When greasing, use recommended grease (mineral-oil based lithium grease).

Please ask your distributor for the details.

For the guide of greasing, the maintenance information is displayed in the operation panel (Page 86). If the maintenance information is displayed, turn off the power switch and supply grease to the specified points.
