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.
