A - INTRODUCTION
The sewing machine S4000 LT is designed and produced to be very reliable. Important design goals have
been to provide a safe machine that is simple and inexpensive to maintain.
The patented rotary needle bar shaft drive, a major benefit, delivers longer needle bar life. The added
benefits of lower vibration and less noise, translate into less operator fatigue.
Simple buttonhole length adjustment located outside the machine, eliminates the need for tilt back, while the
quick stop repair function delivers safety and makes repairs easier.
Special electronic and mechanical safety devices protect the operator and the machine. There is a special
power lock out switch that permits the machine to be locked in the off position, so that it cannot be cycled
accidentally. There is an emergency off switch. There is a low air pressure detector that will not permit
machine operation if air pressure is dangerously low.
There are safety-warning labels on the machine in all areas that require special care. These must not be
removed. If they are lost replace them immediately.
You are the most important safety equipment of all. Be sure you understand the proper operation of the
machine. Never remove safety mechanisms or labels. We have made every effort to provide the safest
possible machine, but without complete knowledge of how this machine operates, and the use of proper care
by the operator, this machine can cause serious injury or death. That is why there are safety warnings
throughout these instructions that carry one of these messages.
D A N G E R ! Possible loss of life.
WA R N I N G !
Possible serious injury or machine damage.
N OT I C E ! Possible injury or machine damage.
We recommend that service workers from AMF Reece oversee the installation and initial training of your
mechanics and operators.
The most effective safety precaution is a well-managed safety program. Be sure those who use this machine
are properly trained. Never disable safety equipment.
Always wear safety goggles when operating or servicing the machine.
