Memo
• When using the spool as shown below, use the
small spool cap, and leave a small space between
the cap and the spool.
• When using thread that winds off quickly, such as
transparent nylon thread or metallic thread, place
the spool net over the spool before placing the
spool of thread onto the spool pin.
If the spool net is too long, fold it to fit the size of
the spool.
When threading the spool with the spool net on,
make sure that about 5 cm (2 inches) of thread is
pulled out. It may be necessary to adjust the thread
tension when using the spool net.
• If a spool of thread whose core is 1.2 cm (approx.
1/2 inch) in diameter and 7.5 cm (approx. 3 inches)
high is inserted onto the spool pin, use the thread
spool insert (mini king thread spool).

Note
• Be sure to wind the thread clockwise around the
bobbin, otherwise the thread may become
wrapped around the bobbin winder shaft.
CAUTION
• Be sure to cut the thread as described. If the
bobbin is wound without cutting the thread
using the cutter built into the guide slit in the
bobbin winder seat, the thread may become
tangled in the bobbin or the needle may bend
or break when the bobbin thread starts to run
out.
