Using the Vertical Spool Pin
Use the vertical spool pin when using an irregularly
shaped thread spool, and when embroidering with
metallic thread.
a
Insert the vertical spool pin onto the bobbin winder
shaft.
b
Install the spool felt and the thread spool in that order,
and then thread the upper thread.
Thread and Needle Number
The lower the thread number is, the heavier the thread;
the higher the needle number, the larger the needle.
Embroidery Needles
Use a ball point needle 75/11.
Memo
• If the needle could not be threaded or the thread
was not passed through the needle bar thread
guides, perform the procedure again starting from
step
c
.
Note
• Some needles and threads cannot be threaded
with the needle threader. In this case, instead of
using the needle threader after passing the thread
through the needle bar thread guide (marked “6”),
manually pass the thread through the eye of the
needle from the front.

Memo
• When setting the thread spool, set it so that the
thread winds off from the front of the spool.
• This method keeps the thread from twisting as it
comes off the spool pin.

button or another operation button is pressed
accidentally, the machine will start and injury
may result.

needles may break and may cause injury.

injury.
Memo

the needle on a flat surface. Check the needle from
the top and the sides. Throw away any bent
needles.
