WINDING/INSTALLING THE
BOBBIN
CAUTION
• The included bobbin was designed specifically
for this machine. If bobbins from other models
are used, the machine will not operate
correctly. Use only the included bobbin or
bobbins of the same type (part code: X52800-
150). X52800-150 is Class 15 type bobbin.

CAUTION
• If the spool or the spool cap is not installed
correctly, the thread may become tangled
around the spool pin, causing the needle to
break.
• Three spool cap sizes are available, allowing
you to choose a spool cap that best fits the size
of spool being used. If the spool cap is too
small for the spool being used, the thread may
catch on the slit in the spool or the machine
may be damaged. When using mini king thread
spool, use the thread spool insert (mini king
thread spool).
For details on thread spool insert (mini king
thread spool), refer to “Memo” on page 37.
