1. Locate the threaded hole on top of the machine near
the rear by the hand wheel.
2. The thread mast comes with a washer and a nut.
Remove the nut and washer, replace the nut onto the
mast for two or three turns.
3. The washer protects the painted surface when the nut
is tightened. Place the washer on the hole and insert
the thread mast.
4. Turn the thread mast clockwise several revolutions,
stopping when the mast eyelets are positioned directly
over the spool pins.
5. Tighten the nut to secure the mast to the machine.
Installing the Thread Mast
Note:
The eyelets of the thread mast MUST be centered
over the spool pins. This ensures that the cone of thread
will not pull, turn or tilt, which will cause thread tension
problems (see
Figure 5
).
