Note

Make sure that the thread is pulled as far as possible into the pre-tension disk, otherwise the bobbin may not be wound cleanly.

hPut the bobbin onto the bobbin winder shaft and slide the bobbin winder shaft to the right. Turn the bobbin clockwise, by hand, until the spring on the shaft slides into the notch in the bobbin.

Make sure to pull out 7 to 10 cm (2-3/4 to 3-15/16 inches) of thread from the hole on the bobbin.

CAUTION

Pull the thread taut and hold the end of the thread straight up. If the thread is too short, not pulled taut or held at an angle, injuries may occur when the thread is wound around the bobbin.

press the foot controller or press (start/ stop button) (for models equipped with the start/stop button) to wind the thread around the bobbin a few times. Then stop the machine.

Note

If the sewing machine is to be operated using the foot controller, connect the foot controller before turning on the machine.

When the foot controller is plugged in, the start/stop button cannot be used to start sewing (only for models equipped with the start/stop button).
