Easily changing the thread spools
When replacing the thread spools, it is necessary to
re-thread the upper thread. However, the thread
spools can easily be changed when replacing a
thread spool whose thread is correctly threaded
through the machine.
1Cut the thread between the thread spool and
the thread guide.
2Change the thread spool.
3Tie the end of the thread on the new spool
with the end of the thread remaining from
the previous color.
4Pull out the old thread just after the needle
bar thread guide.
Continue pulling the thread until the knot is
above the needle. Cut the knot.
5Use the automatic needle-threading
mechanism to thread the needle with the
new thread. (Refer to page 59.)
XThis completes the changing of the thread
spool.
Note
When pulling out the thread, do not pull
the knot through the eye of the needle . If
the knot is pulled through the eye of the
needle, the needle may be damaged.
