¡
Machine installation should only be car-
ried out by a qualified technician.
¡
Contact your Brother dealer or a quali-
fied electrician for any electrical work
that may need to be done.
¡
The sewing machine weighs more than
30 kg. The installation should be carried
out by two or more people.
¡
Do not connect the power cord until in-
stallation is complete, otherwise the
machine may operate if the treadle is
pressed by mistake, which could result
in injury.
¡
Be sure to connect the ground. If the
ground connection is not secure, you run
a high risk of receiving a serious electric
shock, and problems with correct opera-
tion may also occur.
¡
This sewing machine should only be
used by operators who have received
the necessary training in safe use before-
hand.
¡
The sewing machine should not be used
for any applications other than sewing.
¡
Be sure to wear protective goggles when
using the machine.
If goggles are not worn, there is the dan-
ger that if a needle breaks, parts of the
broken needle may enter your eyes and
injury may result.
¡
Turn off the power switch at the follow-
ing times, otherwise the machine may
operate if the treadle is pressed by mis-
take, which could result in injury.
However, the motor will keep turning
even after the power is switched off as
a result of the motor's inertia. Wait until
the motor stops fully before starting
work.

When threading the needle
¡
When replacing the needle and bob-
bin
¡
When not using the machine and
when leaving the machine unattended
¡
Turn off the power switch before carry-
ing out cleaning. However, the motor
will keep turning even after the power is
switched off as a result of the motor's
inertia. Wait until the motor stops fully
before starting work. The machine may
operate if the treadle is pressed by mis-
take, which could result in injury.
CAUTION
Installation
¡
All cords should be secured at least 25
mm away from any moving parts. Fur-
thermore, do not excessively bend the
cords or secure them too firmly with
staples, otherwise there is the danger
that fire or electric shocks could occur.
¡
Install the belt covers to the machine
head and motor.
¡
If using a work table which has casters,
the casters should be secured in such a
way so that they cannot move.
¡
Be sure to wear protective goggles and
gloves when handling the lubricating oil,
so that no oil gets into your eyes or onto
your skin, otherwise inflammation can
result.
Furthermore, do not drink the oil under
any circumstances, as it can cause vom-
iting and diarrhoea.
Keep the oil out of the reach of children.
Sewing
¡
Attach all safety devices before using the
sewing machine. If the machine is used
without these devices attached, injury
may result.
¡
If using a work table which has casters,
the casters should be secured in such a
way so that they cannot move.
¡
Do not touch any of the moving parts or
press any objects against the machine
while sewing, as this may result in per-
sonal injury or damage to the machine.
¡
If an error occurs in machine, or if abnor-
mal noises or smells are noticed, imme-
diately turn off the power switch. Then
contact your nearest Brother dealer or a
qualified technician.
¡
If the machine develops a problem, con-
tact your nearest Brother dealer or a
qualified technician.
Cleaning

Be sure to wear protective goggles and
gloves when handling the lubricating oil,
so that no oil gets into your eyes or onto
your skin, otherwise inflammation can
result.

any circumstances, as it can cause vom-
iting and diarrhoea.
