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.

CAUTION!

The operations described in these service instructions may only be

carried out by qualified staff or other appropriately trained persons!

and with the greatest possible caution.

These service instructions describe the adjustment of the sewing

machine in a logical order. Please observe that various setting

positions are dependent on each other. Thus it is essential that the

settings be conducted while keeping to the order described.

For all adjustments of parts involved in the stitch formation, a new

undamaged needle must be inserted.

This text does not specifically mention any machine covers or panels

which must be removed or re-mounted in order to conduct inspections

or adjustments.
