Quick Bobbin
Thread Device
1 Lift needle plate and open bob-
bin door.
2 Put bobbin into the bobbin case.
✽ Run thread through thread notch and under
latch spring, so that a length of thread is ex-
posed.

plied with this machine. A secondary bob-
bin case can be ordered from your dealer.
3 Pull the latch lever of the bobbin case
out and push the bobbin case into the
shuttle race and release the latch lever.
✽ If the latch lever is not set securely on
the hook, it may fly off during sewing
and cause lower thread breakage.
Rotate the hand wheel one full rota-
tion towards you to check that the
bobbin case is set securely.

bobbin thread device in the order 1

★ Quick Bobbin Thread Device
This device cuts the bobbin thread end
to an appropriate length after the bob-
bin has been replaced and holds it at
that length, so the operation of pulling
out the thread can not be skipped.
Bobbin Thread Setting Cover
● When the fabric extension table is set in place
Open the bobbin thread setting cover
beforehand, then set the bobbin
thread in place. (You can set the bob-
bin thread in place without removing
the fabric extension table.)
