The right-hand arm-shaft bearing must be replaced if the arm shaft
does not run smoothly.
Caution: danger of injury
Turn off the main switch.
The arm-shaft bearing may only be replaced with the sewing machine
switched off.
IMPORTANT !
Do not use an extractor tool.
When the right-hand arm-shaft bearing is removed and replaced no
