Threading Preparation

When using threads on cones or king spools place the cone or
spool securely over the cone holders furnished on your
machine. To avoid bending the thread stand, you may need to
place one hand under the stand while positioning the cone.
The cone holders prevent the cone or spool from spinning,
enabling the thread to feed evenly. (fig. A)
Because threads for the serger feed from the top, standard
spool threads can snag on the rough edges of many of these
spools. That's why spool caps are furnished with your Acclaim
to provide a smooth surface that enables the thread to reel off
freely. With the spool notch side down, insert a spool cap into
the top of the spool. (fig. B)
When using standard spool threads on your serger, replace
the cone holders with the sponge disks furnished with your
machine. These disks hold smaller spools securely and help
the thread to reel off properly. With the sponge disk in place,
put the capped spool on the spindle. (fig. C)
Thread nets may be placed over threads that tend to slip off
the bottom of the spool during sewing. Most threads do not
require their use, but nets often are necessary with nylon,
rayon or silk threads. (fig. D) Once it's on the spool, fold the
net back on itself, if necessary, to enable the thread to feed
smoothly without snagging on the net. (fig. E)
