KNOWING YOUR SEWING MACHINE —————————————————————————————————————————

gTrim 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.

hPress the foot controller to start.

iWhen the bobbin seems full and begins spinning slowly, take your foot off the foot controller.

jCut the thread, slide the bobbin winder shaft to the left and remove the bobbin.

Memo

When the sewing machine is started or the handwheel is turned after winding the thread around the bobbin, the machine will make a clicking sound; this is not a malfunction.

The needle bar does not move when you slide the bobbin winding shaft to the right.

CAUTION

Winding the bobbin improperly may cause the thread tension to loosen, breaking the needle and resulting in injury.

Lower threading

Install the bobbin wound with thread.

CAUTION

Winding the bobbin improperly may cause the thread tension to loosen, breaking the needle and resulting in injury.
