How do I wind the bobbin?
This section describes how to wind thread onto a bobbin. With this machine, you can use the supplemental spool pin to wind the bobbin while sewing using the main spool pin.
The included bobbin was designed specifically for this sewing 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).

(A) This model |
With this machine, you can wind the bobbin without unthreading the machine. While using the main spool pin to sew, you can conveniently wind the bobbin using the supplemental spool pin.

(1) Groove of the bobbin |
|
(1) Supplemental spool pin |
|
(1) Spool pin |
When sewing with fine, cross-wound thread, use the small spool cap, and leave a small space between the cap and the thread spool.

(1) Spool cap (small) |
|
(1) Thread guide |
|
(1) Pin |
Make sure that the thread passes under the pre-tention disk.
|
(1) Guide slit (with built-in cutter) |
Be sure to follow the process described. If the thread is not cut with the cutter, and the bobbin is wound, when the thread runs low it may tangle around the bobbin and cause the needle to break.
|
(1) Bobbin holder (switch) |
When the bobbin holder is set to the left, it works as a switch to make the bobbin wind automatically.
When removing the bobbin, do not pull on the bobbin winder seat. Doing so could loosen or remove the bobbin winder seat, and could result in damage to the machine.
Setting the bobbin improperly may cause the thread tension to loosen, breaking the needle and possibly resulting in injury.
You can use the main spool pin to wind the bobbin before sewing. You cannot use this spool pin to wind the bobbin while sewing.
