Procedyre

® Thread machine with first thread in usual

manner, making certain it passes between
tension separator and right-hand tension
disc.

® Wind bobbin with enough thread to com:-

plets stitching. (Since a bobbin cannot be

filled after a twin-needle is inserted, it is
wise to keep an extra wound bobbin on hand

for replacement)

® Unthread and remove needle.

« Attach detachable spool pin to thread

guidepost and insert the twin needle.

® Pass first thread through right eye of needle.

® Place second spool of thread on detachable

spool pin and thread as before, except
bypass snap-in thread guidepost and pass
thread between tension separator and left-

hand tension disc and through left eye of
needle.
