Chapter 7 STANDARD ADJUSTMENTS
Hold the machine head with both hands when
tilting it back or returning it to its original position.
Furthermore, after tilting back the machine
head, do not push the face plate side or the
pulley side from above, as this could cause the
machine head to topple over, which may result
in personal injury or damage to the machine.
If the power switch needs to be left on when
carrying out some adjustment, be extremely
careful to observe all safety precautions.
If any safety devices have been removed, be
absolutely sure to re-install them to their original
positions and check that they operate correctly
before using the machine.
