FAQs & Troubleshooting

How do I set the bobbin ?

  • Use a bobbin thread that has been correctly wound. Otherwise, the needle may break or the thread tension will be incorrect.
  • The included bobbin was designed specifically for this machine. If bobbins from other models are used, the machine will not operate correctly. Use only the included bobbin or bobbins of the same type (part code: SA156, (SFB: XA5539-151 / 115J05E0001)). SA156 is Class 15 type bobbin.
  • Before inserting or changing the bobbin, be sure to press  in the LCD to lock all keys and buttons, otherwise injuries may occur if the “Start/Stop” button or any other button is pressed and the machine starts sewing.

 

 

  1. Press  to lock all keys and buttons and raise the presser foot.
    * If the message OK to automatically lower the presser foot? appears on the LCD screen, press to continue.



     
  2. Slide the bobbin cover latch to the right.

  3. Remove the bobbin cover.




     
  4. Hold the bobbin with your right hand and hold the end of the thread with your left hand.




     
  5. Set the bobbin in the bobbin case so that the thread unwinds to the left.




     
  6. Hold the bobbin lightly with your right hand, and then guide the thread with your left hand.



     

  7. Pass the thread through the guide, and then pull the thread out toward the front.
    (1) Cutter
    >> The cutter cuts the thread.

    If the thread is not correctly inserted through the tension spring of the bobbin case, it may cause incorrect thread tension.

    (1) Tension spring

    Be sure to hold down the bobbin with your finger and unwind the bobbin thread correctly. Otherwise, the thread may break or the thread tension will be incorrect.




     
  8. Insert the tab in the lower-left corner of the bobbin cover (A), and then lightly press down on the right side to close the cover (B).
