Note
If you try to thread the needle with the needle threader
lever without raising it, damage to the machine may
result.
CAUTION
• If the thread spool and/or spool cap are set
incorrectly, the thread may tangle on the spool pin
and cause the needle to break.
• Use the spool cap (large, medium, or small) that is
closest in size to the thread spool. If a spool cap
smaller than the thread spool is used, the thread may
become caught in the slit on the end of the spool and
cause the needle to break.
