Memo
• By guiding the thread around the tab of the needle
plate cover, passing the thread as shown by 2 in
this illustration, then lightly pulling the thread at 3,
the thread will enter the tension spring of the
bobbin case to apply the appropriate tension to the
bobbin thread during sewing.

hand (1), continue guiding the thread through the slit
with your left hand (2). Then, cut the thread with the
cutter (3).
Memo
• Be sure to complete the bobbin threading correctly
according to these instructions. If the thread is
simply placed in the slit in the needle plate cover,
the bobbin thread will not be correctly threaded,
resulting in poor sewing performance or incorrect
thread tension.
