Introduction
This service booklet contains the instructions for setting the sewing machine
head mechanisms.
The directions for putting the machine into operation and for setting the
positioning drive are contained in another publication.
The service booklet is common for all subclasses of the machine and
contains also the instructions for setting optional accessories of the machine,
if this is necessary owing to their complexity. Provided the machine supplied
does not contain some elements, then the respective chapters may be
ignored.
The succession of the setting operations is expressed here by sequencing
the paragraphs of this booklet. When setting, check up, if the setting
operations related to this setting have already been performed.
General safety instructions
The non-observance of the following safety instructions can cause
bodily injuries or damages to the machine.
1. The machine must only be commissioned in full knowledge of the
instruction book and operated by persons with appropriate training.
2. Before putting into service also read the safety rules and
instructions of the motor supplier.
3. The machine must be used only for the purpose intended. Use of
the machine without the safety devices is not permitted. Observe all

left, and during service work, the machine must be disconnected
from the mains by switching off the master switch or disconnecting
the mains plug.
5. Daily servicing work must be carried out only by appropriately

open-ended wrench. Verify that the stitch regulator gear is without
motion by pressing down on the bartacking lever. This fulfils rule 1.
–Set the scaling ring (4) with stitch length “0”toalignwiththe
circular mark (5).
–Limit the stitch length according to rule 2. For this, screw the
retention pin (6) into the proper hole. The holes are marked with
numbers which indicate the maximum stitch length.
–Put the settings dial (2) back on and tighten the screw (1).
