CAUTION
• Be sure to use the bobbin case (gray) when creating
bobbin work. Using any other bobbin case may
result in the thread becoming tangled or damage to
the machine.
• Make sure that the bobbin case is correctly
installed. If the bobbin case is incorrectly installed,
the thread may become tangled or the machine may
be damaged.
CAUTION
• 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.

CAUTION
• When winding the bobbin, make sure the thread is
not frayed. Sewing with frayed thread may result in
the thread catching on the tension spring of the
bobbin case, the thread becoming tangled or
damage to the machine.
• Do not guide the bobbin thread through the groove
in the needle plate cover, otherwise the lower
threading cannot be done correctly.
