Winding the Bobbin
This section describes how to wind thread onto a
bobbin. With this machine, you can use the
supplemental spool pin to wind the bobbin while
sewing using the main spool pin.
Using the Supplemental Spool Pin
While sewing embroidery, the bobbin can
conveniently be wound.

secure the thread spool.

CAUTION
The included bobbin was designed specifically for
this sewing machine. If bobbins from other models
are used, the machine will not operate correctly.
Use only the included bobbin or bobbins of the same
type (part code: X52800-150).

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.
Note
When using cross-wound thread on a thin spool, use
the small spool cap, and leave a small gap between
the cap and the thread spool.
