Note
zWhen sewing with fine, cross-wound thread,
use the small spool cap, and leave a small
space between the cap and the spool.

zWhen using thread that winds off quickly,
such as transparent nylon thread or metallic
thread, place the spool net over the spool
before placing the spool of thread onto the
spool pin. If the spool net is too long, fold it
to fit the size of the spool.
When the spool net is used, the upper thread
tension may become tighter. Before sewing,
refer to "Adjusting the thread tension" (page
62).
