CAUTION
• If the thread spool and/or spool cap are set
incorrectly, the thread may tangle on the spool
pin and cause the needle to break.
• Use the spool cap (large, medium, or small)
that is closest in size to the thread spool. If a
spool cap smaller than the thread spool is
used, the thread may become caught in the slit
on the end of the spool and cause the needle
to break.
Memo
• When sewing with fine, cross-wound thread,
use the small spool cap, and leave a small
space between the cap and the thread
spool.

(1/2 inch) in diameter and 75 mm (3 inches)
high is inserted onto the spool pin, use the
