When the machine is purchased, only the bobbin case is installed in the hook. Insert a bobbin wound with
bobbin thread for embroidering. For precautions concerning the bobbin, refer to page 33.
Note
●The machine does not indicate how much
bobbin thread is remaining. Before starting
to embroider make sure that there is
enough bobbin thread for the pattern.
●Make sure to clean the bobbin case every
time the bobbin is changed. For details on
cleaning the bobbin case, refer to
“Cleaning the bobbin case” on page247.
