PREFACE This Engineer’s Manual is written for the technical personnel who are responsible for the service and maintenance of the machine. The Instruction Manual for these machines intended for the maintenance personnel and operators at an apparel factory contains operating instruction in detail. And this manual describes “Standard Adjust- ment”, “Adjustment Procedures”, “Results of Improper Adjustment”, and other important information which are not covered in the Instruction Manual.

TO ENSURE SAFE USE OF YOUR SEWING MACHINE Adjustment : It means replacement of parts, disassembly, and repair assembly. For the sewing machine, automatic machine and ancillary devices (hereinafter collectively referred to as "machine"), it is inevitable to conduct sewing work near moving parts of the machine. This means that there is always a possibility of unintentionally coming in contact with the moving parts.

JUKI assumes no responsibility for damages or personal injury or death resulting from the use of the machine for any application other than the intended one.
Page 5
1. Be sure to use JUKI genuine table and table stand in order to prevent accident that can result in personal injury or death. If it is inevitable to use a table and table stand which are not JUKI genuine ones, select the table and table stand which are able to support the machine weight and reaction force during operation.
Page 6
7. If the machine cannot be normally operated after repair or adjustment, immediately stop operation and contact JUKI or the distributor in your area for repair in order to prevent accident that can result in per- sonal injury or death.
Page 7
5. Be sure to use JUKI genuine parts when replacing any of the machine parts. JUKI assumes no responsibility for any accident caused by any part other than JUKI genuine one. In addition, in the event you cannot replace parts within the specified range, immediately stop the re- placement work and ask JUKI or distributor in your area for replacement of the parts.
Page 8
Replacement of parts 1. In prevention of accident caused by unfamiliarity with the machine or electrical-shock accident, be sure to ask an electrical technician of your company or JUKI or distributor in your area for replacement of electrical components. 2. When it is necessary to open the control box containing electrical parts, be sure to turn the power off and wait for five minutes or more before opening the cover in order to prevent accident caused by un- familiarity with the machine or electrical-shock accident.
