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.

iTurn on the sewing machine.

jWhile holding the end of the thread, gently 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).

kTrim the excess thread above the bobbin.

CAUTION

●Make sure you follow the instructions carefully. If you do not cut the thread completely, and the bobbin is wound, when the thread runs low it may tangle around the bobbin and cause the needle to break.
