Winding the bobbin
You can wind your own bobbins
with thread from spools you
purchase separately to have a
virtually unlimited thread color
selection. Match your fabrics
or contrast with the thread
shades of your choice.
1. Always remove the bobbin
(S) from the bobbin case on
the machine before you
wind a new bobbin.
2. Place the thread spool (E) on the thread spindle (C).
3. Press down the bobbin winder handler (W), the bobbin winder (T) will be lifted up.
4. Take an empty bobbin. Pull the thread down from the thread (E) through the clamper (I)
and thread the loose end through the small hole the bobbin to allow the small hole on the
bobbin rim from the outside.
5. Leaving the loose end on the outside of the bobbin, wind the thread several turns around the
INSIDE of the bobbin.
6. Place the bobbin on the bobbin winder spindle; making certain that the thread is winding
onto the bobbin in a counter-clockwise direction. Adjust the bobbin to allow the small hole
on the bobbin rim to line up with the spring on the bobbin winder spindle.
7. Press down the “ON” switch, the machine will start to wind the bobbin.
8. When the bobbin is full, switch off the machine. Insert the bobbin into bobbin case.
