UPPER THREADING
46
Using the Spool Stand
The included spool stand is useful when using thread
on spools with a large diameter (cross-wound thread).
This spool stand can hold two spools of thread.
■
Using the Spool Stand
a
Attach the spool stand to the machine. (page 19.)
b
Place the spool of thread on the spool pin so that the
thread feeds off the spool clockwise. Firmly insert the
spool cap onto the spool pin.
c
Pull the thread off the spool. Pass the thread from the
back to the front through the thread guides at the top.
When using thread that quickly feeds off the spool, such
as metallic thread, use the enclosed ring to prevent the
thread from becoming entangled.
Threading sequence; Pull the thread from the spool,
place the thread through the ring from the bottom up
(
1
), into the thread guide (
2
) and through the ring from
the top down (
3
). When using the ring, do not use the
spool cap base.
• Be sure to use a spool cap
that is slightly larger than the
spool.
If the spool cap that is used is
smaller or much larger than
the spool, the thread may
catch and sewing
performance may suffer.
• When using thread on a thin
spool, place the included
spool felt on the spool pin,
place the thread spool on the
spool pin so that the center of
the spool is aligned with the
hole at the center of the spool
felt, and then insert the spool
cap onto the spool pin.

• When using thread on a cone
spool, use the spool holder.
When using cone shaped
thread spool with other than
cotton thread, it is not
necessary to use spool caps.

• Depending on the size of
spool or the amount of thread
remaining, choose the
appropriate sized spool cap
(large or medium). Spool cap
(small) cannot be used with
the spool cap base.

Note
• When using two spools of thread, make sure that
both spools are feeding in the same direction.
• Make sure that the spools do not touch each other,
otherwise the thread will not feed off smoothly, the
needle may break, or the thread may break or
become tangled. In addition, make sure that the
spools do not touch the telescopic thread guide at
the center.
• Make sure that the thread is not caught under the
spool.
Note
• Guide the thread so that it does not become
entangled with the other thread.
• After feeding the thread as instructed, wind any
excess thread back onto the spool, otherwise the
excess thread will become tangled.
