amount of thread for pattern.
Whether or not tension should be applied to the
bobbin thread depends on the type of thread being
used.
■ When tension is applied to the
bobbin thread
Insert bobbin into bobbin case so the thread
unwinds from the left side.
Then correctly pass the thread through the tension
spring as shown below.

CAUTION
• Use a bobbin thread that has been correctly
wound. Otherwise, the needle may break or
the thread tension will be incorrect.
• Be sure to use the machine’s included bobbin
or one designed specifically for this machine.
Using any other bobbin may result in damage
or injuries.

Note
• Slowly and evenly wind the thread around
the bobbin.
• For best results, wind the bobbin so the
thread is snug and not twisted.
CAUTION
• If thread extends beyond the top of the bobbin
too much, the thread may become tangled or
the needle may break.
Memo
• If inserting thread tail through bobbin hole is
difficult, bobbin can be wound by holding
the tail and wrapping thread around inside
base. Then carefully trim thread tail so it
does not extend from the side of the
bobbin.
