stitches
less
than
maximum, for
the
first
100
hours
of
operation.
Maximum
efficient speed is dependent upon the

INSTALLATION
Machine
base
and oil reservoir shown in
Fig.
2,
fits
into
standard
table
cut-out
and
rests
on
the
four
corners without bolting.
Rasp edges of cut-out, if
necessary,as
base must
be
located
so
that
machine
does
not
touch
table.
Use shims on corners, if necessary, to prevent base
from
rocking.
Base
must
be
level
In
both
directions
so
that
oil
level will be accurately indicoted by marks on base.
Machine bed
rests
on
felt
gasket
in
base.
Fig.

and
is
not
bolted
down.
Machine hinge pins must not support the head except
when
it
is
tilted
bock.
CAUTION:
Do
not
start
machine
until
it
has
been
thor
oughly lubricated as instructed below.
LUBRICATION
Machines
of
Class
262
have
an
automatic
lubricat
ing
system
in which oil is
circulated
from a
reservoir
by means of a centrifugal pump, and is delivered under
pressure to all principal bearings.
Before starting machine, the oil reservoir which
holds approximately 1
-3/4
pints must be filled to high
mark, as shown in Fig. 2.
Use
SINGER*
OIL
"TYPE
A"
or
"TYPE
C".
Use
"TYPE
C"
OIL
when
an oil is
desired
which
will
produce minimum
stain
on
fabrics.
NOTE:
When
machine
is
new
or
has
been
idle
for
some
time, remove face
plate
and oil the upper and lower
needle bar bushing wick by hand. The automatic oiling
system will fuction efficiently after the first few min
utes.
Check oil level often to keep it
from
going below
mark.
CAUTION:
If the flow of oil passing the oil flow window
shown in Fig. 3, should stop or become erratic, stop
the machine immediately and do not run machine until
the
trouble
has
been
eliminated.
