Pull the thread off the spool. Pass the thread
from the back to the front through the
thread guides at the top.
When using thread that quickly feeds off the spool,
such as metallic thread, use the enclosed ring to
prevent the thread from becoming entangled.
Threading sequence; Pull the thread from the spool,
place the thread through the ring from the bottom up

Using Threads that Unwind
Quickly
■ Using the Spool Net
If using transparent nylon monofilament thread,
metallic thread, or other strong thread, place the
included spool net over the spool before using it.
When using specialty threads, threading must be
done manually.
If the spool net is too long, fold it once to match it to
the spool size before placing it over the spool.
Note
• When using 2 spools of thread, make sure
that both spools are feeding in the same
direction.
• Make sure that the spools do not touch each
other, otherwise the thread will not feed off
smoothly, the needle may break, or the
thread may break or become tangled. In
addition, make sure that the spools do not
touch the telescopic thread guide at the cen-
ter.
• Make sure that the thread is not caught
under the spool.
Note
• Guide the thread so that it does not become
entangled with the other thread.
• After feeding the thread as instructed, wind
any excess thread back onto the spool, oth-
erwise the excess thread will become tan-
gled.

Memo
• When threading the spool with the spool net
on, make sure that 5-6 cm (approx. 2 - 2-1/2
inches) of thread are pulled out.
• It may be necessary to adjust the thread ten-
sion when using the spool net.
