How to I attach the spool of thread to my machine?
- 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.
- With this sewing machine, a spool of thread can be loaded into the thread cassette, and then the thread cassette can be threaded. Information about the spools of thread is described below.
- Spools that can be loaded into the thread cassette
Normally, a spool of thread is loaded into the thread cassette and used. The spools that can be loaded must have a diameter smaller than the orange spool cap and a height shorter than the mark on the cover of the thread cassette.

- Spools that cannot be loaded into the thread cassette
When using spools that cannot be loaded into the thread cassette, use the extra spool pin.
When using the extra spool pin, attach either the large or small white spool cap, depending on the size of the spool. Use the spool cap with a diameter that is slightly larger than the diameter of the spool.

- For details on using the extra spool pin, refer to "When should I use the extra spool pin?".
- When using a spool of cross-wound thread, install the small white spool cap with some space between the cap and the spool.

Two 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.
