8 Installation and commissioning
The machine must only be mounted and commissioned by qualified personnel!
All relevant safety regulations are to be observed!
If the machine is delivered without a table, it must be ensured that the frame
and the table top which you intend to use can hold the weight of the machine
and the motor. It must be ensured that the supporting structure is sufficiently
sturdy, including during all sewing operations.
8.01 Installation
The site where the machine is installed must be provided with suitable connections for the
electric current, see Chapter 3 Specifications.
It must also be ensured that the standing surface of the machine site is firm and horizontal,
and that sufficient lighting is provided.
The method of packaging used requires that the table top be lowered for trans-
port. The following is a description of how to adjust the height of the table top.

8.03 Commissioning the machine
Check the machine, especially the electri-
cal leads, for any damage.
Remove pin 1 of the oil reservoir 2
(Fig. 8 - 07).
The pin serves only to protect
the machine from damage
during transport and must not
be used when sewing.
Clean the machine thoroughly and oil it
(see chapter 10 Care and maintenance).
Have skilled personnel check if the ma-
chine can be operated with the available
mains voltage.
.
Do not operate the machine if there is any discrepancy.
Before commissioning the machine, have specialized personnel check whether
the parameter 799 (machine class) is set at "1" and the parameter 800 (sewing
direction) is set at "0". If necessary, have the adjustment carried out (see Chap-
ter 8.05 Basic position of the machine drive unit).
.
The machine may only be connected to an earthed socket!
8.04 Switching the machine on/off
Switch the machine on (see Chapter 7.01, On/off switch).

8.05 Basic position of the machine drive unit
(only on machines with Quick-EcoDrive and control unit P40ED)
Switch on the machine.
Press the TE/speed key twice to select the input mode.
Select parameter "798" by pressing the corresponding +/- key, and select service level
C, see Chapter Selecting the user level in the instruction manual for the control panel.
By pressing the corresponding +/- key select the parameter "799" (Selecting the machine
class).
Check whether value "1" is set, and correct it if necessary.
If the parameter has to be altered, operate the TE/Speed key and then switch
off the machine and switch it on again. Then select service level C again as de-
scribed above.
By pressing the corresponding +/- key, select parameter "800" (selecting the sewing
direction).
By pressing the corresponding +/- key, select the value for the parameter at "0".
By pressing the corresponding +/- key, select parameter "700".
Sew a stitch by operating the pedal.
Turn the balance wheel in the sewing direction until the descending needle is level with
the top edge of the needle plate.
Then check the parameter values listed in the parameter list (see Chapter
10.04 Parameter Settings) and adjust them if necessary.
Conclude the adjustment of the sewing motor by pressing the TE/Speed key.

9.01 Inserting the needle
Switch off the machine!
Danger of injury due to uninten-
tional starting of the machine!
Only use needles from the sys-
tem intended for the machine,
see Chapter 3 Specifications.

9.02 Winding the bobbin thread, adjusting the thread tension
Place an empty bobbin 1 onto bobbin shaft 2.
Thread the bobbin in accordance with Fig. 9-02 and wind it anti-clockwise around bobbin
1 a few times.
Switch on the bobbin winder while at the same time pressing bobbin winder spindle 2
and lever 3.
The bobbin fills up during sewing.
If the machine is only being used to wind the bobbin (without sewing), a bobbin
case must be inserted in the hook! (Danger of damage to the hook).
The tension of the thread on bobbin 1 can be adjusted with knurled screw 4.
The bobbin winder stops automatically when bobbin 1 is full.
Remove the filled bobbin 1 and cut the thread on knife 5.
If the thread is wound unevenly, loosen nut 6 and turn thread guide 7 accordin-
gly. Retighten nut 6 after the adjustment.

Care and maintenance
31
Clean .................................................................daily, more often if in continuous operation
Check oil level ...................................... monthly (does not apply to the 1181-D and 1183-D)
Oil the trimmer -731/01 ....................... once a week, more often if in continuous operation
10 Care and maintenance
10.01 Servicing and maintenance intervals
These maintenance intervals are calculated for the average running time of a
single shift operation. If the machine is operated more than this, shorter inter-
vals are recommended.
10.02 Cleaning the machine
The cleaning cycle required for the machine depends on following factors:
Single or several shift operation
Amount of dust resulting from the workpiece
It is therefore only possible to stipulate the best possible cleaning instructions for each indi-
vidual case.
For all cleaning work the machine must be disconnected from the mains
by switching off the on/off switch or by removing the mains plug!
Danger of injury if the machine suddenly starts up .
To avoid breakdowns, the following cleaning
work is recommended for single shift ope-
ration:
Swing out the cover plate and tilt back
the sewing head.
Clean the hook and hook compartment
daily, more often if in continuous opera-
tion.
Return the machine to its up-
right position using both hands!
Danger of injury by crushing
between the edge of the
machine and the table top!

10.03 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.
Es muss sich immer Öl im Vor-
ratsbehälter befinden!
Whenever it is necessary to refill the re-
servoir, 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 ar-
row).
Use both hands to set the sew-
ing head upright!
Danger of crushing between the
sewing head and the table top!
Only use oil with a mean vis-
cosity of 22.0 mm2/s at 40°C
and a density of 0.865 g/cm3 at
15°C.
