Cleaning the machine
.02
The cleaning cycle required for the machine depends on following factors:
● Single or several shift operation
● Amount of dust resulting from the workpiece
It is therefore only possible to stipulate the best possible cleaning instructions for each indi-
vidual case.
To avoid breakdowns, the following cleaning work is recommended for single shift operation:
● Clean hook compartment and needle area several times a day.
● Clean the entire machine at least once a day.

Clean the machine ........................ once a day, more often when in continuous operation
Clean the hook compartment ........ once a day, more often when in continuous operation
Check the oil level ..................................................................................................... daily
Change the oil ............................... 4 weeks after commissioning, then every six months
Oil the thread lubrication .................................................................................. as required
Oil the machine ..................................... during commissioning and after long downtimes
Change the knife .............................................................................................. as required
These maintenance intervals are calculated for the average running time of a
single shift operation. If the machine is operated more than this, shorter inter-
vals are recommended.
For all cleaning work the machine must be disconnected from the mains by
switching off the on/off switch or by disconnecting the mains plug!
Danger of injury if the machine starts accidentally!
