Brother Direct Drive Programmable electonic pattern sewer with cylinder bed BAS-311G - Manual (Page 5)

The adoption of a linear guide (both X and Y feed directions) has improved feed durability.
Inner clamping device***
This is operated with the outer presser by
air and so material slippage will not occur.
It is suitable for sewing around labels,
emblems and Velcro straps.
Thread breakage detector
When it detects thread breakage, the sewing
machine stops automatically and warns its
operator. It is helpful when one operator uses
many machines at the same time.
Triple pedal for standing operation
In addition to the start pedal, the right and
left pedals operate independently. This
allows fabric to be positioned even more
precisely.
Sewing data programming software
PS-300B
This is a software package that lets you
create, edit and modify sewing patterns for
electronic sewing machines using a
personal computer with no skill required.
Thread wiper*
This is driven by a pneumatic cylinder and
useful when a thread cannot be
completely pulled out from fabric in sewing
extra heavy materials.
Needle cooler*
This is a pneumatic type needle cooler
which prevents thread breakage due to
heat. It is particularly useful for sewing
heavy materials or sewing at high speeds.
2-step thread tension device*
This allows the upper thread tension to be
switched between two settings at any
desired time by using the programmer (PD-
3000). It can be used to produce attractive
finishes with sewing in which the thickness
of the material changes during the course
of a single pattern such as overlapping part
sewing, or the sewing direction is changed.
* This device requires the optional solenoid valve set.
** The part codes are different for 311G and 326G.
Floppy disk drive (FDD) set
Sewing data which were created with the
old models can be loaded to the machines
with this set.
Simple adjustment
Improved durability
Brother has established the “Brother Green Label” in conformity with
ISO 14021 international standard and JIS Q14021 Japanese Industrial
Standard. BAS-311G and 326G have been approved for this standard.
The models are environment-conscious machines achieving industry’s
top energy saving with the direct drive system, use of lead-free solder in
all PCB, and significant extension of the hook’s lifetime.
Environmentally friendly
Driver phase can be adjusted easily
The driver phase can be adjusted from the side
without tilting the sewing machine. This reduces
time taken for the adjustment and improves
productivity when materials are changed.
Pulley positioned in convenient location
The pulley is positioned in the convenient
location on the side of the sewing
machine arm. Needle drop and hook timing
can be checked easily.
