4. INSTALLATION
Machine installation should only be carried out by a
qualified technician.
Contact your Brother dealer or a qualified electrician for
any electrical work that may need to be done.
The sewing machine head weighs approximately 160
kg.
Use equipment such as a crane or hoist when installing
the machine head and adjusting the height of the table.
If you try to lift the machine head yourself, it may cause
injuries such as back injury.
Do not connect the power cord until installation is
complete.
If the foot switch is depressed by mistake, the sewing
machine might start operating and injury could result.
If using a work table which has casters, the casters
should be secured in such a way so that they cannot
move.
Use a table with a height of 84 cm or less. If the table is
too high, the machine head may become unbalanced
and fall down, and serious injury or damage to the
sewing machine may result.
When placing the sewing machine on the table
Carry out the procedure starting from "4-2. Installing the control box" on the next page.
If the sewing machine was already installed to the table when it was delivered
Carry out the procedures indicated by [1] to [15] in the titles in the order of the numbers.
4-1. Removing the machine head fixing bolts [1]
CAUTION
Hold the machine head with both hands when tilting it
back or returning it to its original position.
In addition, do not subject the machine head to extra
force while it is tilted back. If this is not observed, the
machine head may become unbalanced and fall down,
and serious injury or damage to the sewing machine
may result.
All cords should be secured at least 25 mm away from
any moving parts. Furthermore, do not excessively bend
the cords or secure them too firmly staples, otherwise
there is the danger that fire or electric shocks could
occur.
Be sure to connect the ground. If the ground connection
is not secure, you run a high risk of receiving a serious
electric shock, and problems with correct operation may
also occur.
Install the safety covers to the machine head and motor.
