2. CAUTIONS WITH REGARD TO SAFETY

Following is a compilation of all the warnings and cautions which appear throughout this manual.
WARNING
Wait at least 5 minutes after turning off the power switch before opening the cover of the control box. Touching areas
where high voltages are present can result in severe injury.
CAUTION
Do not use the motor near sources of strong electrical interference. If the motor is installed in a location which is close
to sources of strong electrical interference such as high-frequency welders, it may cause problems with correct operation of the sewing machine.
Disconnect the power cord plug from the wall outlet before installing the motor.
The motor and control box weigh approximately 13 kg. Take care not to drop them on your feet when installing or
removing them from the work table.
Be sure to tighten the nuts securely.
If they are not tightened properly, it could cause the sewing machine to vibrate or shift its position while sewing.
Turn off the power switch and wait for the power indicator on the panel display to turn off before connecting and
disconnecting any of the connectors.
Turn off the power switch before inserting or removing the AC power cord plug.
Be sure to connect the power supply to a secure ground. If the ground is not securely connected, electric shocks may
result.
Use a lamp which is rated at 6 V AC and 20 W or less as the head lamp.
If a lamp with a higher rating than this is used, it could cause the lamp wires and the transformer to overheat and burn
out.
Confirm that the power supply matches the motor and the control box specifications before turning on the power switch.
The motor, control box or sewing machine could be damaged if the supply voltage is too high.
Do not clamp the cords inside the control box when closing the control box cover.
Turn off the power switch before connecting the cords, otherwise damage to the control box, synchronizer, operation
panel or material edge sensor may result.
Any fluctuations in the power supply voltage should be within 10% of the rated voltage for the motor.
Voltage fluctuations which are greater than this may cause problems with correct operation of the sewing machine.
Use a power supply with a capacity which is in excess of the motor power capacity.
Insufficient power supply capacity may cause problems with correct operation of the sewing machine.
The ambient temperature should be within the range of 5C to 35C during use.
Temperatures which are lower or higher than this may cause problems with correct operation of the sewing machine.
The relative humidity should be within the range of 45% to 85% during use, and no dew formation should occur in any
devices.
Excessively dry or humid environments and dew formation may cause problems with correct operation of the sewing
machine.
Avoid exposure to direct sunlight during use.
Exposure to direct sunlight may cause problems with correct operation of the sewing machine.
In the event of an electrical storm, turn off the power and disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.
Lightning may cause problems with correct operation of the sewing machine.

10 14 mm of deflection
1. Tilt back the machine head and place the belt q onto
the motor pulley w and the machine pulley e.
2. Turn the two nuts r to adjust the deflection in the Vbelt q when the center of the belt is pushed.
The recommended values are:
1. For single-needle sewing machines and overlock
machines, the deflection should be 10 14 mm when
the belt is pushed with a force of 5 N (500 g).
2. For twin needle sewing machines, the deflection
should be 10 20 mm when the belt is pushed with
a force of 10 N (1 kg).
Note:
While using the sewing machine, the belt will conform
to the pulley and cause the belt tension to loosen. If the
belt tension is too loose, the following problems can
occur.
1. The stopping position may shift.
2. An abnormal noise may be heard due to belt slippage.
3. The belt may become too loose and contact the
cover.
4. When sewing heavy materials, the belt may slip on
the pulley and the sewing machine may stop.

r Thread trimming
1. The treadle is at the neutral position q when the treadle is not pressed.
2. When the treadle is gently depressed to position w, low-speed sewing is carried out. If it is then depressed as far as
e, high-speed sewing is carried out.
3. When the treadle is pressed forward and then back to the neutral position q, the needle will stop below the needle
plate (when needle down stop mode has been set).
4. When the treadle is depressed backwards to position r (or when the treadle is pressed backward to position r and
is then returned to neutral position q), the thread trimmer operates, and then the needle will be raised and stop
above the needle plate.
5. If using with the synchronizer cord disconnected
When the treadle is pressed forward and then back to the neutral position q, the machine will stop regardless of
the needle position.
Thread trimming will not be carried out even if the treadle is pressed backed to position r. (The sewing machine
does not operate.)
6. If an automatic presser foot lifter is being used
The presser foot will rise when the treadle is pressed backwards. If the knee switch is pressed, the pressure foot will
not raise with the treadle operation, so raise and lower the presser foot with the knee switch.
When the treadle is pressed backwards and the thread is trimmed, the sewing machine will stop, and the presser
foot will rise. To lower the presser foot, press the treadle backwards and then return it to the neutral position q. The
presser foot can also be lowered using the knee switch. If the treadle is pressed forward, the sewing machine will
operate after the presser foot lowers.

The synchronizer detects the needle position with two sensors.

The thread trimming signal is timed to the needle down position signal and the treadle reverse signal.
When the power is turned on and the needle stopped in the down position, the distance between needle plate top and
needle set screw bottom should be 18 to 22mm.
When the needle is stopped in the up position and the pulley reference line is within the belt cover reference lines, the
distance between needle plate top and needle tip should be 10 to 12mm with thin and regular materials, 10 to 14mm
with thick materials. (With Model B748 the needle up stop position is 10-14mm.)
Adjust as follows when necessary.
Turn the power off.
Needle up position
1. Slightly loosen the two screws q.
Move the set screws q in the direction of normal pulley movement to raise the needle bar w stop position. Turn the
other way to lower the needle bar.
Needle down position
1. Set the treadle to reverse and then release it to neutral. (This is the needle down stop position.)
2. The distance between the needle plate top and the needle screw bottom should be 18-22mm.
3. Loosen screw e and move the synchronizer r to adjust.
* Check the needle up stop position.
* When the machine pulley is removed once, provide 0.5mm clearance between the pulley bottom and the synchronizer
for installation.
(Improper clearance causes improper machine operation.)
When the synchronizer is out of order...
Turn off the power switch and disconnect the synchronizer cord.
Use the machine with standard function (without thread trimming) until the synchronizer is replaced.

13. Troubleshooting guide

If there seems to be a malfunction, first check the machine as described below. If the problem remains unresolved,
turn off the power and contact your nearest Brother dealer.
When using a model with the operation panel if an error displays on the operation panel refer to 13.1 Error display
and details.
Problem

3. The machine stops while sewing.
(2) The machine pulley does not turn

easily.
Remove the belt from the machine

pulley and check the torque.
(3) The motor pulley is incorrect.
Check that the size of the motor

pulley being used matches the machine.
(4) The DIP switch settings are incorrect.
Check that the DIP switch settings

are adequate. Refer to 7.5.2 Other
DIP switch functions. If the pulley
used and the DIP switch settings
differ, the motor may continue to
rotate when stopping from a high
speed.
Voltage drop
Check the power voltage. (Even if

the measured voltage is normal, if
the wiring is too long or if branched
wiring is used, the voltage may
drop during sewing causing the
reset function to activate and the
machine to stop.)
Refer to 13.1 Error display and details.
Occurrence of various errors
4. The machine does not stop in the

needle down or needle up position
after the treadle is returned to the
neutral position.
Turn off the power switch, disconnect

the synchronizer cord, and then turn
the power switch back on. If the sewing machine stops when the treadle is
at the neutral position, there is a problem with the synchronizer.
If the sewing machine does not stop,
there is a problem with the control
box.

15.2 Head setting mode

Before the motor is shipped from the factory, the motor product code is determined for each head and is set to match the
specifications of the head. If the motor is to be used for another head, replace the pulley with an appropriate one, and
select the head No. with this mode. The specifications will then match the head.
The backtack stitching timing, etc., differs slightly according to the head. Thus, setting this mode accurately is recommended.

16. Operational instructions

16.1 When the power SW is ON
The motor power is created with the rectifying circuit and smoothing capacitor on the power PCB. To suppress the rush
current, the smoothing capacitor is charged through the resistor. After charging, the relay contact closes and the smoothing capacitor is directly connected to the rectifying circuit.
The solenoid power is 40VDC. This is created by rectifying and smoothing the 30VAC from the power transformer using
the control PCB.
For the control power, +5V and +8V stabilized power is created on the control PCB. The stabilized power is a dropper
type.
When the power is turned ON, connection of the operation panel and material edge sensor is checked. If these are not
connected, the tacking function on the control box is validated.
When the power is turned ON, connection of the synchronizer is checked. If the synchronizer is not connected, operation in the manner of a clutch motor will take place. As performance as a servomotor is not attained, this is not recommended unless the synchronizer is faulty.
16.2 When the power SW is OFF

This motor has no special processes when the power is OFF.
It takes approximately five minutes for the motor powers smoothing capacitor to discharge after the power is turned
OFF. Make sure that the LED (red) on the PCB is OFF before starting maintenance of the power PCB.
16.3 Operation of the pedal

The treadle unit outputs an analog voltage according to the pedal position. The control unit reads this voltage and
converts it into a motor command.
If it is not detected that the pedal is at the neutral position when the power is turned ON, the motor will not start. The
neutral position is the treadle unit output 1.5V0.4V.
16.4 While running

The motor is controlled by controlling the 3-phase inverters output frequency and output voltage.
[ P t ] (power transistor error): Error when an error signal is received from the power PCB output element.
The sewing machine pulleys rotation speed is detected by the sewing machine heads synchronizer. Feedback is controlled to reach the commanded speed.
[ L o ] (lock): Error that occurs if the synchronizer signal is not detected for three seconds.
[ P U ] (pulley error): Error that occurs if the sewing machine rotation exceeds the maximum speed setting. (The pulley
setting is incorrect.)
The motor drive power voltage is constantly checked, and the required control is executed. The following voltages are
detected.
[ O u ] (overvoltage): Error that occurs when 304VAC is exceeded.
[ O L ] (overload): Error that occurs when a level 290VAC or more continues for 160ms.
