Upper Threading
CAUTION
• Three spool cap sizes are available, allowing
you to choose a spool cap that best fits the size
of spool being used. If the spool cap is too
small for the spool being used, the thread may
catch on the slit in the spool or the needle may
break. For more information regarding the
choice of spool caps for your thread choice,
see page B-15.
• When threading the upper thread, carefully
follow the instructions. If the upper threading
is not correct, the thread may become tangled
or the needle may bend or break.
• Never use a thread weight of 20 or lower.

Note
• If the presser foot is not raised, the machine
cannot be threaded.
CAUTION
• If the spool or the spool cap is not positioned
correctly, the thread may become tangled
around the spool pin or the needle may break.
