Unpacking 1-1
11817 Rev. A 1. Installation
1.Installation
Read the entire manual before operating the machine. Save all packing material; if you ever need
to move the peripheral, use the original packing material.
Unpacking
EMT 10T
Remove the packing straps holding the box together using a knife. Lift off the top of the box, and
then remove the sides of the carton. Remove the plastic bag enclosing the equipment. When the
plastic is off, refer to Figure 1-1 for further instructions.
Prepare the designated area for the peripheral. If you have purchased the cart option, you must
clear a temporary location for the machine (until you have assembled the cart). If you purchased
the foot option, install the 4 feet before removing the machine from the box. Two people are
required to lift the EMT 10T. Refer to Figure 1-2 to locate the hand-holds, and lift as shown in Fig-
ure 1-3.

Operation Manual for the EMT 10T, 10/4, and 10/4T Melco Embroidery Systems
EMT 10/4 and 10/4T
There are two versions of the EMT 10/4 and 10/4T machines, and each are shipped in a different
way. Domestic models are shipped with a “coffin-style” crate surrounding the heads. International
models are shipped in a full crate and are packed on a palette within the crate. Determine which
style you have, and refer to the pertinent section.
Domestic models
Two people are required to unpack the EMT 10/4 or 10/4T. Be careful when unpacking your new
peripheral. On one end of the “coffin-style” crate is a wooden cover that protects the power
switches during shipment (refer to Figure 1-
4). 2 bolts secure this cover to the crate.
remove both bolts, and remove the cover.
Along the back of the crate are 2 “L” shaped
brackets; these brackets hold the crate to the
frame, protecting the heads. Remove the
bolts holding the bracket to the crate, then
remove the bolts holding the bracket to the
frame. When the bolts have been removed,
remove the bracket.
The crate weighs 115lbs (52.3kg) and is very
awkward, so use caution. With one person
standing at each end of the crate, carefully
lift the crate until it is clear of the heads.
Remove the crate. Store all packing materials
and hardware in a safe place. Reuse the
packing materials if you ever relocate the
peripheral. Figure 1-4
