4. INSTALLATION
4-6. Lubrication
Be sure to wear protective goggles and gloves when handling the lubricating oil, so that it does not get into your eyes or
onto your skin. If care is not taken, inflammation can result.
Furthermore, do not drink the lubricating oil. Diarrhea or vomiting may result.
Keep the oil out of the reach of children.
When cutting the nozzle of the oil tank, hold the base of the nozzle securely.
If you hold the end of the nozzle, injury from the scissors may result.
・ The sewing machine should always be lubricated and the oil supply replenished before it is used for the first time, and also after
long periods of non-use.
・ Use only the lubricating oil (JXTG Nippon Oil & Energy SEWINGLUBE N 10; VG10) specified by Brother.
* If this type of lubricating oil is difficult to obtain, the recommended oil to use is Exxon Mobil Essotex SM10, VG10.
