Close the shuttle cover.
●
Make sure you set the bobbin so the thread
unrolls in the right direction. If the thread unrolls
in the wrong direction, it may cause the thread
tension to be incorrect or break the needle.
CAUTION
●
Make sure that the bobbin case is properly
placed back into the machine. If it is incorrectly
installed, it will fall out from the shuttle when the
machine starts to sew.
