Winding the bobbin
- 1. Put a spool of thread on spool pin. (Fig.20)
- 2. Guide the thread through the bobbin winder tension disk on the
upper side of the machine. (Fig.21)
- 3. Put the bobbin on the bobbin winder pin, wind thread clockwise
around bobbin several times. (Fig. 22)
- 4. Push bobbin to the left. (Fig.23)
- 5. Switch on the machine to start winding. (Fig.24)
-
6. Switch off the machine to stop winding after appropriate volume of
thread you wanted had winded on bobbin.
- 7. Push bobbin away from bobbin winder stop, take bobbin off the pin
and cut the thread. (Fig.25)
Caution
- During bobbin winding, no thread on the needle/take up lever is al-
lowed. Please take thread off from it before bobbing winding.
- Before bobbin winding, raise the presser foot.
Adjusting stitching
- 1. As shown in the picture A, normal stitching shall have top and bot-
tom threading evenly, neither over tight nor loose.
- 2. If the bottom threading looks like a straight line (Fig.B), which indi-
cates the top thread is too loose. Please turn upper thread tension dial
to direction with bigger number to increase pressure until the stitching
return to norma.
- 3. If the top thread looks like straight line (Fig.C), which indicates an
over-tight top thread. Please turn the upper thread tension dial to the
direction with smaller number to reduce pressure until the stitching
back to normal.
Other functions
Overlocked
- To finish off the edges of any fabric, start sewing 0.3cm from the edge.
- We must select an overlock or overlock stitch, 5 or 6 leaving the width
and length values that come by default. (depending on the machine
they will be one or the other)
- Advancing slowly, the fabric that we have left, while the needle is
making the overlock or overlock stitch to obtain a perfect finish on the
piece. When the end of the fabric is reached, we finish off.
Pre-riveted drilling
- It consists of moving the needle without thread front and back to pierce
the fabric and thus be able to put a brooch or a rivet.
- If you want a bigger hole you should change the needle to a thicker
one.

• Δ: means not smooth to sew
Note:
1. The definition of the fabric thickness:
• Thin (fabric): Two layers of the fabric thickness <0.35mm
• Thick (fabric): two layers of the fabric thickness >0.8mm
•
Regular (fabric): two layers of the fabric thickness ≥0.35mm and
≤0.8mm
2. The definition of elastic cloth:
• If the cloth, which size is “100mmx30mm”, is extending to or
over 106 mm under 0.5Kg tension force, then the cloth is de-
fined elastic, otherwise it is inelastic.
3. Hard fabric: such as Jeans, fine canvas, etc.
4. Soft fabric: such as towel, duster, etc.
