7. CORRECT USE
7-3. Winding the lower thread
1. Place the bobbin all the way onto the shaft.
2. Thread the thread as shown in the illustration,
wind the thread around the bobbin several times,
and then press the bobbin presser (1).
3. Turn on the power switch. Depress the treadle to
set the machine to the home position.
4. While pressing the ENTER key (17) on the
operation panel, depress the treadle until the
machine starts operating, and then release the
key. Only the upper shaft and lower shaft will then
operate; the zigzag and feed mechanisms and
the presser foot will not operate. When the lower
thread has finished winding, return the treadle to
the neutral position.
5. Remove the bobbin, hook the thread onto the
knife (2), and then pull the bobbin in the direction
of the arrow to cut the thread.
Adjusting the bobbin winding amount
Loosen the screw (3) and adjust the bobbin presser
(1).
If the thread winds onto the bobbin unevenly
Loosen the set screw (4) and move the bobbin wider
tension bracket (5) up and down to adjust.
* For case A, move the bobbin winder tension
bracket down, and for case B, move it upward.
Do not touch any of the moving parts or press any objects against the machine while winding the
lower thread, as this may result in personal injury or damage to the machine.
