Placing the Thread Spools
on the Spool Pins
Place the thread spools over the cone holders on the spool
pin. Firmly insert the spool holder into the spool.
A. If sewing with small thread spools, remove the cone
holders. Place the spool with its slit side up, and put the
spool holder cap on top of it.
B. If the thread slips down from the spool during threading
and/or sewing, put a net over the spool to avoid thread
jams.
If the Thread Breaks While Sewing
If either of the upper or lower looper threads break while sewing, rethread both threads. Cut both looper threads above the
threading holes, and remove the thread from the holes.
Rethread the loopers following the instructions on page 14-17.
Changing Thread
The following is an easy way to change threads:
Cut the thread near the spool, behind the guides on the tele-
scopic thread stand.
Remove the thread spool and place the new thread on the
spool pin.
Tie the end of the new thread to the end of the old thread.
Cut the thread tails to approx. 1″ (2-3cm) in length and firm
-
ly pull both threads to test knot security.
Raise the presser foot.
First note tension dial settings and then turn the tension dials
down to "0".
Pull the threads through the machine one at a time until
the knots are in front of the needle. If the threads cannot be
pulled easily, check for tangles on thread guides or looping
under thread stand.
Cut the thread behind the knot and thread the needle.
Return tension dials to previous settings.
