INTRODUCTION
Thank you for your purchase of our Baby Lock Model BL3407.
This machine not only works as two machines, both 3-thread and 2-
thread overedgers, but can sew a wide range of fabrics, from the thickest
to the thinnest materials.
This instruction booklet will be your guide to correct operation of Model
8L3407. Read this booklet carefully and you will be the real master of
your new machine.
Belt cover screws
(Figure 1)
Mount the motor correctly onto the machine
body as follows:
Remove the belt cover by loosening both belt
cover screws (Figure 1).
Mount the motor onto the machine body by
tightening the bracket f ixing screw while
setting the V-belt in place at the same time,as
shown in Figure 3. (The bracket fixing screw,
washer and V-belt are enclosed together in the
carton).
Belt tension will be most suitable when the
V-belt bends slightly under finger pressure
(see Figure 4). Make belt tension adjustments
by shifting the position of the belt tension
adjusting nut accordingly (Figure 4).
Re-attach the belt cover.
