To Wind the Bobbin
Release the balance wheel (D, Fig. 3) by
turning the stop motion screw (E, Fig. 3) over
toward you.
Draw to the left the knob (A, Fig. 6, page 7)
and place the bobbin between the cups (B
and C, Fig. 6), then release the knob. Push
the bobbin winder pulley (D, Fig. 6) against
the hub of the balance wheel, and turn the
balance wheel until the thread guide (4, Fig.
6) moves to the extreme right. Put the spool
of thread on the spool pin (1, Fig. 5). Pass
the end of the thread into the thread guide (2,
Fig. 5) at the top of the face plate, then up
into the lower eyelet (3, Fig. 6) of the bobbin
winder thread guide, into the notch (4, Fig. 6).
With the thumb and forefinger of the left hand
press the bobbin lightly to the left and place
the end of the thread between the bobbin and
the cup (C, Fig. 6) at the right. Then operate
the machine the same as for sewing. When
the bobbin is filled, remove it from the bobbin
winder, pull the bobbin winder away from the
hub of the balance wheel and turn the stop
motion screw over from you to connect the
stitching mechanism.
