How do I wind the bobbin?

 

 

Do not move bobbin winding clutch while machine is running.

 
  1. Raise the thread guide bar all the way.

    Mount a spool thread on the spool pin.

    * Use spool cap when using parallel-wound thread.

    * Use spool cushion when using cross-wound thread.

     

  2. Pass the thread through the triangular hole.

     

  3. Pass thread through bobbin winding thread guide as shown in drawing.

     

  4. Run thread through top thread notch 1, and align bottom thread notch 2 of the bobbin with guide pin on bobbin winder shaft.

     

  5. Press bobbin winding clutch up against empty bobbin. If the bobbin stop does not slide easily between the top and bottom of the bobbin, check that the bobbin is seated properly with the guide pin (5.) inserted into the lower notch.

     

  6. While holding the end of the thread, step on the foot controller for a few seconds.

    Once enough thread has wound itself around the bobbin to hold itself in place, release the foot controller and trim the excess thread.

    Continue to wind the bobbin while pressing down on the foot controller.

     

  7. Stop winding process when bobbin is full.

    Take the foot off foot controller.

     

  8. Manually move bobbin winding clutch back to original position.

     

  9. Cut thread and remove bobbin.
