Push the bobbin winding shaft firmly to the right until
it clicks into place against the stop (
figure 3b).
• Hold the end of the thread and press the foot controller
to wind the thread around the bobbin a few times.
Trim the excess thread (
figure 3c), and continue
winding until the winding shaft stops automatically.
• Push the bobbin winding shaft back to the left, cut the
thread, and remove the bobbin from the shaft (
figure 3d).
Unwind the thread from the tension disk.
• Set the power switch to off (O).
Raise the needle to its highest position by turning the balance wheel towards you (counter-clockwise).
Open the shuttle cover behind the extension table.
• Hold the bobbin case in your left hand with the
bobbin case finger pointing towards you (
figure 4c).
With your right hand, pull the trailing thread into the
slot in the bobbin case (
figure 4c).
• Draw the thread down under the spring into the
delivery eye (
figure 4d).
• Hold the bobbin case by the latch, with the finger
pointing upwards (figure 4e).
Insert the bobbin back into the shuttle, release the
latch, and push the bobbin in until it clicks.
Make sure the bobbin case goes in all the way, or the
