Use a clutch motor of 3-phase, 2-pole, 400 W (1/2HP).
Use the M type V belt.
1) The motor pulley shifts to the left-hand side when
depressing the pedal. At this time, install the motor
so that the centers of motor pulley and lower pulley
align with each other.

2) Install the motor so that the pulley rotates clockwise.
If the machine pulley rotates in the reverse
direction, nomal lubrication cannot be
performed. As a result, machine trouble will
be caused.

* The table shows the numbers when a 3-phase
2-pole 400 W clutch motor (1 / 2 HP) is used.
* The commercially-available motor pulley near to
the counted value is designated since the outside
diameter of the commercially-available motor pulley
counts by 5 mm.
Use a motor pulley which is adaptable to this
machine and machine trouble will be caused
unless a motor pulley which is adaptable to
this sewing machine is used.
When you use a new sewing machine, use
the machine at a speed of 4,500 sti/min or
one month). A good result can be obtained in
terms of the durability.
