11.02 Topping up the oil tank (does not apply to the 1181-D and 1183-D)
The PFAFF 1181-D and 1183-D are totally maintenance-free and run without
any oil.
The oil reservoir must always
have oil in it.
● Whenever it is necessary to refill the
reservoir, tilt back the machine and let it
rest on the sewing head support.
● Fill oil through hole 1 into the reservoir 2
up to the level of the front edge (see
arrow).
Return the machine to its
upright position using both
hands!
Danger of injury by crushing
between the machine and the
table top!
Only use oil with a mean viscosity of 10.0 mm
2
/s at 40°C and a density of
0.847 g/cm
3
at 15°C.
We recommend PFAFF sewing machine oil, part no. 280-1-120 105.
