* If you want to temporarily stop
winding bobbin before completion,
press start/stop button.
* If sewing machine has failed to correctly wind bobbin, try again from step 1.
* With a special-purpose thread, machine may fail to wind bobbin correctly. In such a case,
wind bobbin manually. (Refer to pages 119, 120 for how to wind bobbin manually.)
* If needle thread runs out during bobbin winding, check bobbin.
WHAT DOES THAT HELPFUL PICTOGRAM MEAN?
*The Wind-in-Place Bobbin System shares the winding mechanism with the
Embroidery Endless Bobbin. If you attempt to use the Standard Sewing
Machine Wind-in-Place Feature when the Endless Bobbin Feature is threaded you will re-
ceive a Helpful Pictogram Message instructing you to remove the bottom thread spool.
*When removing the Bottom Thread Spool open the Cover for the Endless Bobbin and cut
the thread at the spool.
*Remove the Spool of Thread.
*Then open the Cover of Endless Bobbin Winder and, with your provided tweezers, grasp
the short thread tail that protrudes from the spring closest to the screw that holds the
Needle Plate in Place.
*Carefully pul the thread out towards the rear of the sewing machine. Do not pull the
thread from the spool end and do not jerk the thread out.
*Finally, make sure that the Winding Mechanism is clear of any thread debris, paying par-
ticular attention to thread scraps that might be caught under the springs.
