Bobbin and Thread Tension Adjustments

Inserting the Bobbin

Note: Turn off the power switch while inserting the
bobbin case or anytime your hands are near the
needle area.
1. Place the bobbin in the bobbin case so that the
thread pulls off clockwise when viewing the open side
(Figure 11).
2. Slide the thread through the slot (Figure 12) and
under the tension spring leaving 5-6 inches of thread
hanging loose (Figures 12 and 13).

3. To insert the bobbin case into the machine, grasp
the bobbin case with thumb and first finger. Do not lift
the lever on bobbin case. Fit the bobbin case onto the
hook spindle in the machine. Rotate the case until the
open throat keys into the alignment notch in the middle
of the hook. Push the case in until it stops in place.
Push the case inward further until it clicks (see Figure
14). Allow the thread end to hang freely.
NOTE: Pulling out the latch lever pushes the bobbin
forward in the bobbin case, aiding in removal of the
bobbin. The lever should be used only for removing the
bobbin case from the machine.
