To Replace the Shuttle
After threading, take the shuttle in the right
hand with the point toward you and the ten-
sion adjusting screw (1, Fig. 7, page 8)
upwards. Put the point of the shuttle into the
front end of the shuttle carrier as shown in
Fig. 10, and drop the shuttle into place, leav-
ing a loose end of thread about three inches
long above the slide. When closing the slide,
leave just enough space for the thread to
pass through.
