PREFACE This Engineer's Manual is written for the technical personnel who are responsible for the service and maintenance of the machines. The Instruction Manual for these machines intended for the maintenance personnel and operators at an apparel factory contains information which are not covered by the Instruction Manual. Separately refer to the Instruction Manual and Engineer's Manual for the SC-1 for the explanation of the motor components of the sewing machine with a thread trimmer. Refer to the "Instruction Manual for the CP-30 series" and the "Installation Manual for the Control Panel" for the explanation of the control panel. It is advisable to use the pertinent Instruction Manual and Parts List together with this Engineer's Manual when carrying out the maintenance of these machines. CAUTION 1. Keep your hands away from the needle when you turn the power switch ON or while the machine is operating. 2. Do not put your fingers into the thread take-up cover while the machine is operating. Do not operate your machine with thread take up cover removed. 3. Be sure to turn the power switch OFF before tilting the machine head or removing the V belt. 4. During operation, be careful not to allow your or any other person's head or hands to come close to the handwheel, V belt, bobbin winder or motor. Also, do not place anything close to them. Doing so may be dangerous. 5. If your machine is provided with a belt cover, finger guard or any other protectors, do not operate you machine with any of them removed. 6. For the machine that is not equipped with a thread trimmer and uses a clutch motor, never depress the foot pedal unless the main switch has turned ON. BEFORE OPERATION 1. Don't run the machine before filling the oil reservoir with the prescribed lubricating oil. 2. After setting up your machine, make sure that it runs in the correct direction; lower the needle by turning the handwheel and watch the handwheel's revolution by momentarily switching the power "on" (correct rotational direction of the handwheel: counterclockwise when viewed from the handwheel's end.) 3. Run the newly installed machine at a speed of 2,500 s.p.m. or lower for the first 4 weeks. 4. Confirm the ratings of your power source by the machine plate stuck on the motor (power voltage, phase etc.) jintex.in
