CAUTION
(1) Please make sure to turn power switch off before lubricating.
(2) Please pay attention that oil does not get on your skin or in your eyes as it may cause an
inflammation.
(3) Please make sure to keep oil out of the reach of children who may drink oil by mistake.
NOTICE Please make sure to check the amount of oil when operating for the first time after the
installation. Also, please lubricate directly to the internal mechanism of machine head such as thread take
up lever unit, needle bar and presser bar. The above is the same when the machine has not been used
for a long time.
(1) The oil tanks are set at three places of the machine. Pour oil through the oil holes of (No.1 to No.3) to
the oil tanks.
(2) The oil tank (No.1) and (No.2) have level marks (at the center of the tank). Running out the oil may
cause the machine to make abnormal noise and seize up. When the amount of oil decreases to
one-third or less than one-third, make sure to fill the tank with oil. Also, do not pour oil more than the
level marks. When tilting the machine head, it may cause oil leak.
(3) The oil tank (No.3) shows the oil amount by the tip of the indicator. The appropriate oil amount is
between level marks (high and low red lines).
