Installing Rear Handles; Cluster Led Light Installation And/Or Replacement - Baby Lock Crown Jewel III BLCJ18-3 Instruction And Reference Manual

Installing Rear Handles

CAUTION: Check that the Baby Lock Crown Jewel III is un-
plugged from the electrical outlet. All power to the machine
must be turned off when installing the rear handles. Failure to
do so can result in damage to the machine.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Care must be taken to not pinch the rib-
bon cable under the handle when it is tightened to the machine.
The rear handles already come mounted by three Allen screws into an
"L" bracket. Line up the two holes in the "L" bracket with those on the
rear of the machine. Slide the two short Allen screws into holes until
they stop. Hand tighten, and then use the 5.0mm Allen wrench to
securely fasten the handle to the back of the machine.
Once the two Allen screws are in place, plug the 9-pin ribbon con-
nector into the serial port underneath the rear handle (Rear Dia-
gram C, #34 page 14). Ensure the pins are lined up so they are not
damaged when the plug is pushed in. Push the plug securely in place.
NOTE: After the handles have been completely installed and
plugged in, test them by turning the Baby Lock Crown Jewel III
on/off switch to "on". The handles will run a self-test by briefly dis-
playing their version during boot up, and then the LED lights on
the front handles will illuminate. After the boot up is completed,
both LCD displays (front handle and rear handle) will display
the same menu. If nothing is displayed or if the lights don't il-
luminate, check that the handle cable on the side of the machine
is plugged in securely, that your machine is turned on, and that
the power cord is plugged into the machine as well as a power
source.

Installation and/or
Replacement
The LED (Figure 7)
pin lights are located
on the underside of
the front handles.
While LED lights
have a very long life
expectancy, oc-
casionally you may
Figure 7
need to replace one
or you may choose to
add more LED lights for additional lighting (avail-
able from your Baby Lock retailer). You may add
up to 10 additional LED lights on the front handles
if desired.
Removal:
1.
Shut off the power to the machine.
2.
Grasp the LED light by the base of the light
with your fingertips.
NOTE: Do not grasp the LEDs themselves, as
they may break.
3.
Pull straight downward without twisting (slight
rocking back and forth may be required).
4.
If you are unable to remove the lights with your
fingers, you may use an extraction tool or a pair
of needle-nose pliers to carefully grasp the base
of the light and pull downward.
Installation:
1.
Shut off the power to the machine.
2.
Insert the new LED light, matching the three
pins with the three holes in the receptacle (ori-
entation is not critical).
3.
Press firmly until the LED light is fully inserted
(the base will be against the metal closing plate
of the handle).
