Singer 14T968DC manual Eye of Looper Spreader Disengaged Spreader Engaged

Engage Spreader. The Upper Looper has a hole for the thread on the top of the looper. If the stitch requires that the looper be engaged, but not threaded then the Spreader is used. The Spreader simply plugs-in (or closes) the looper’s hole. The Spreader is disengaged when the Upper Looper is engaged/operative and threaded. The Spreader is used with a stitch that requires only one looper thread. With

the help of the Spreader the single looper thread needs to wrap around the fabric’s edge.
