2) Add oil before the oil surface comes down to
reach the “LOW” mark B.
3) When you operate the machine after lubrication,
you will see splashing oil through oil sight window
if the lubrication is adequate.
4) Note that the amount of the splashing oil is unre-
lated to the amount of the lubricating oil.
1. When you use a new sewing machine or a sewing machine after an extended period of dis-
use, use the sewing machine after performing break-in at 2,000 sti/min or less.
2. For the oil lubrication, purchase JUKI NEW DEFRIX OIL No. 1 (Part No. : MDFRX1600C0) or
JUKI MACHINE OIL #7 (Part No. : MML007600CA).
3. Be sure to lubricate clean oil.
4. When the oil surface is lower than the LOW mark, the oiling may be inconsistent. To prevent
inconsistent oiling, add oil before the oil surface comes down to reach the LOW mark.
WARNING :
1. Do not connect the power plug until the lubrication has been completed so as to prevent accidents
due to abrupt start of the sewing machine,
2. To prevent the occurrence of an inammation or rash, immediately wash the related portions if oil
adheres to your eyes or other parts of your body.
3. If oil is mistakenly swallowed, diarrhea or vomitting may occur. Put oil in a place where children
cannot reach.

(6) Sample showing the appropriate amount of oil supplied to the face plate parts
1) The state given in the gure shows the appropri-
ate amount of oil (oil splashes). It is necessary to
nely adjust the amount of oil in accordance with
the sewing processes. However, do not exces-
sively increase/decrease the amount of oil in the
hook. (If the amount of oil is too small, the face
plate parts will be hot or seize. If the amount of oil
is too much, the sewing product may be stained
with oil.)
2) Check the oil amount (oil splashes) three times
(with three sheets of paper).
Use the specied needle for the machine. Use the
proper needle in accordance with the thickness of
thread used and the kinds of the materials.
1) Turn the handwheel until the needle bar reaches
the highest point of its stroke.
2) Loosen screw , and hold needle with its
indented part A facing exactly to the right in
direction B.
3) Insert the needle fully into the hole in the needle
bar in the direction of the arrow until the end of
hole is reached.
4) Securely tighten screw .
5) Check that long groove C of the needle is facing
exactly to the left in direction D.
When polyester lament thread is used, if the indented part of the needle is tilted toward opera-
tor's side, the loop of thread becomes unstable. As a result, hangnail of thread or thread break-
age may occur. For the thread that such phenomenon is likely to occur, it is effective to attach
the needle with its indented part slightly slanting on the rear side.
