WINDING THE BOBBIN

The Vivo create & repair machine by SINGER® uses metal bobbins.The bobbin case is magnetized. When the metal bobbin is used, correct tension for the bobbin thread can be achieved. Therefore, do not use transparent or plastic bobbins – using transparent or plastic bobbins will result in poor stitch quality due to lack of tension on the bobbin thread.

Always use metal bobbins. Contact your Authorized SINGER® retailer for more information, or visit www.singer.com.

Place the spool base, thread and spool cap onto the spool pin. Pull the thread out from the spool. Slip it into the thread guide, then wind it around the bobbin tension guide, as illustrated.

Put the end of the thread through the hole in the bobbin, as shown. Place the bobbin onto the bobbin winder as far as it will go.

Holding onto the end of the thread, push the bobbin winder firmly to the right, up against the bobbin winding stopper. Step on the foot controller to begin winding the bobbin, stop to trim the thread tail. Step on the foot controller again to resume winding the bobbin. When the bobbin is full, push the spindle to the left, clip the thread and remove the bobbin from the winder.
