Winding/Installing the Bobbin
GETTING READY

c
Remove the spool cap and place the spool of thread for
the bobbin onto the spool pin.
Slide the spool onto the spool pin so that the thread
unwinds to the front from the bottom. Otherwise the
thread may become tangled around the spool pin.
1 The thread unwinds to the front from the bottom.
d
Slide the spool cap onto the spool pin.
Slide the spool cap as far as possible to the right, as
shown, with the rounded side on the left.
e
While holding the thread near the spool, pass the
thread through the thread guide cover.
And then, pass the thread under the thread guide plate,
and pull it to the right.
1 Thread guide cover
2 Thread guide plate
Memo
By placing the bobbin into the bobbin case in the
same orientation that it was on the bobbin winder
shaft, the bobbin can be installed with the correct
winding direction of the bobbin thread.
The “b” mark on one side of the bobbin included
with this machine can be used as a reference.
CAUTION
If the spool or the spool cap is not installed
correctly, the thread may become tangled
around the spool pin, causing the needle to
break.
Three spool cap sizes are available, allowing
you to choose a spool cap that best fits the size
of spool being used. If the spool cap is too
small for the spool being used, the thread may
catch on the slit in the spool or the machine
may be damaged. When using mini king thread
spool, use the thread spool insert (mini king
thread spool).
For details on thread spool insert (mini king
thread spool), refer to “Memo” on page 17.

Memo
When using the spool as shown below, use the
thread spool insert (mini king thread spool).
Make sure that the thread spool insert is firmly
inserted. After installing it, pull out some thread,
and check that the thread unwinds without getting
caught.
When using thread that winds off quickly, such as
metallic thread, place the spool net over the spool
before placing the spool of thread onto the spool
pin.
If the spool net is too long, fold it to fit the size of
the spool.
1 Thread spool insert
(mini king thread
spool)
2 Hole diameter
8.0 mm to 10.5 mm
(5/16 inch to 13/32
inch)
3 Spool (cross-
wound thread)
