WINDING THE BOBBIN

You will find a bobbin in place under the slide

plate of your machine. (To open slide plate,

simply draw it gently toward you.) If the bobbin

runs out of thread during sewing, you can re­
wind it without removing it from the machine.

The window in the slide plate lets you see

bobbin-thread supply at a glance, to help

avoid running out of thread in the middle of
a seam.

Preparation Steps

1. Raise the take-up lever to Its highest posi­

tion by pressing lightly on the speed con­
troller or by turning the hand wheel toward
you.

2. Raise the presser foot to release tension

discs.

3. Open slide plate and make sure bobbin is

empty. For removal of bobbin and thread,

see page 10.

4. Set pattern-selector release lever by turn­

ing it clockwise, see page 1 2, and set stitch
control dials for straight stitching: stitch
pattern I , needle position/^(center)

and stitch w i d t h .

If pattern-selector release lever fails to lock
into place, turn the hand wheel slightly toward

you and then reset lever.

Winding Steps

1. Move bobbin latch to right (wind position).

2. Draw needle thread back between toes of

presser foot, under left side of presser foot,

then up, into and around thread retainer, as
shown.

Do not hold thread end.

Start the

machine, running it at a moderate speed.

3. Pull thread end away after it has separated

from bobbin.

• Keep your eye on the bobbin as it fills.

Do not allow thread to wind beyond the
outside FULL ring.

4. Close slide plate to release bobbin latch to

sewing position.

To start sewing,

pull thread back under

presser foot and cut. Place threads diagonally
under foot to right or left side, position needle

in fabric where desired, lower presser foot,
and start machine.
