3. Pull out about 10 cm of thread from the bobbin and insert the bobbin
so it winds to the right.
4. Hold the end of the upper thread and rotate the hand wheel toward
you (counter clockwise) while gently pulling on the upper thread until the
bobbin thread emerges from the bobbin thread hole.
5. Pull the bobbin thread when it emerges from the bobbin thread hole.
It's easier to pull the thread out if you use a rod with a small tip.
6. Pass the upper and bobbin threads to the rear under the presser foot,
pulling them out together about 10 cm.
7. Attach the hook cover plate.
- Note: The upper and bobbin thread must be correctly installed. Sew
a test piece to make sure the machine is sewing correctly and then
begin sewing your project.

needle threadis not being threaded).
- CAUTION: Be sure to use metalbobbins.
1. Place a spool of sewing machine thread onto the thread spindle and
place the thread cap or place the thread spool on the desk (If the thread
spool is big).
2. As shown in the drawing, the thread passes through the bobbin hole,
and is winded 3-4 times to the right around the bobbin.
3. Align the groove in the centre of the bobbin with the fitting on the
bobbin thread winding spindle and press down.
4. Slide the bobbin winding spindle to the right.
5. Move the power switch to "I" or "II" to start winding the bobbin.
