Daily Maintenance
The fuse currently protecting the machine is exposed. If this fuse blows, a spare fuse is included in the fuse
holder next to the active fuse. Use it to replace a burned-out fuse. Purchase additional fuses from APQS, or a
well-stocked electrical supply store. Ask for a 3.15amp 250 Volt SLOW BLOW 5mm x 20mm fuse. The fuse
MUST be “slow blow” which make it more difficult to find at hardware or home improvement stores.
Remove the spare fuse and clip it into the end of the fuse holder. Reinstall in the machine.
Before restoring power to the machine
, take a few minutes to ensure the machine can cycle the
needle up and down by turning the flywheel by hand. If the bind or jam has not been cleared before the
machine is powered up, the replacement fuse will also blow.
If the fuse replacement process does not allow the machine to turn on, you may have blown the fuse that
protects the circuit board. This fuse is located under the top covers of the machine. It is the same size fuse
as the main fuse – a 3.15amp 250 volt SLOW BLOW fuse. The replacement process for this fuse begins on
the next page.
