Inserting the Bobbin into Bobbin Case
NOTE:
To prevent personal injury always turn off the
power switch while inserting and removing the bobbin
case or anytime your hands are near the needle area.
1. Place the bobbin in the bobbin case so that the thread
pulls off clockwise when viewing the open side of case
(Figure 13).
2. Slide the thread through the slot (Figure 14) and under
the tension spring leaving 5-6 inches of thread hanging
loose (Figures 14 and 15).

3. To insert the bobbin case into the machine, grasp the
bobbin case with thumb and index finger. Do not lift
the lever on bobbin case. Fit the bobbin case onto the
hook spindle in the machine. Rotate the case until the
open throat keys into the alignment notch in the mid-
dle of the hook. Push the case in until it stops in place.
Push the case inward further until it clicks (see
Figure 16). Allow the thread end to hang freely.
NOTE: Pulling out the latch lever pushes the bobbin for-
ward in the bobbin case, aiding in removal of the bobbin.
The lever should be used only for removing the bobbin
case from the machine, not while inserting.
