IMPORTANT
• When winding transparent nylon thread on
the bobbin, stop bobbin winding when the
bobbin is 1/2 to 2/3 full. If the bobbin was
fully wound with transparent nylon thread, it
may not be wound neatly, or sewing
performance may suffer. In addition, extreme
pressure may be applied to the bobbin, it may
not be possible to remove the bobbin from
the bobbin winder shaft, or the bobbin may
break.
IMPORTANT
• When the bobbin winding becomes slow, stop
the machine, otherwise the machine may be
damaged.
Memo
• If the threads will be pulled to create gathers or the
thread at the beginning of sewing will be finished,
for example, when free motion quilting, first pull up
the bobbin thread.
For details, refer to “Pulling up the bobbin thread”
on page 27.
CAUTION
• Use a bobbin that has been correctly wound
with thread, otherwise there is a risk of poor
thread tension or injury due to the needle
breaking.
• Before inserting or changing the bobbin, be
sure that you have touched on the
operation panel to lock all keys and buttons,
otherwise injuries may occur if the “Start/
Stop” button or any other button is pressed
and the machine starts.
