Inserting the bobbin
Make sure that the needle is fully raised and the
machine is turned off before inserting or removing the
bobbin.
1. Open the bobbin cover by pushing the release button
to the right (A). Remove the cover (B).
2. Insert the bobbin in the bobbin case with the thread
running in a counterclockwise direction.
3. Pull the thread through the slit (C). With a finger
held gently on top of the bobbin, draw the thread at
the arrow markings into the stitch plate thread guide
from (C) to (D). Pull the thread at the arrow
markings into the stitch plate thread guide from (D)
to (E).
To cut off excess thread pull thread back over the
blade at point (E).
4. Replace the bobbin cover.
Presser foot pressure
The presser foot pressure has been pre-set to the
standard value "2". In most cases, you do not need to
adjust the presser foot pressure. For specialty techniques
or when sewing on very light or heavy fabric, adjusting
the pressure can improve the result.
For very light fabrics, loosen the pressure by turning the
dial counterclockwise.
Note: If the dial is turned counterclockwise too much, it could
come off. If this happens, simply replace the dial and turn it
clockwise until it stays in place.
For heavy fabric, tighten the pressure by turning the
dial clockwise.
Note: If the dial is turned clockwise until it comes to a stop, it
has reached the maximum pressure available. Do not try to
turn the dial any further!
