Spool Pins

Auxiliary spool pin
Your Platinum 770 has two spool pins,
a
b
a main spool pin and an auxiliary spool
pin. The spool pins are suitable for all
types of thread. Fold the spool pin out

towards the right. Place the thread spool
on the spool pin so that the thread reels
clockwise. Slide on a spool holder (see
below) and then fold the spool pin back
to the horizontal position.
Main Spool Pin
The main spool pin is adjustable and can be used in a horizontal position (the
thread reels off the stationary spool) or in a vertical position (the thread spool
rotates). There are two spool holders on the spool pin, one large (a) and one
small (b). Depending on what thread spool size or which spool pin position you
are using, the spool holders are used differently. Use the horizontal position for
normal threads and the vertical position for large spools or threads with special
characteristics.
Horizontal Position
When using the pin in horizontal position and with
narrow thread spools, place the large spool holder
(a) under the thread spool. The small holder (b) is
placed in front of the thread spool.
Narrow thread spool
If you use large spools, place the small spool holder
(b) under the thread spool and the large holder (a)
in front of it.
The fl at side of the spool holder should be pressed

fi rmly against the spool. There should be no space
between spool holder and thread spool.
Vertical Position
To use the spool pin in its vertical posi-
tion, fold the spool pin out towards the
right. Slide on the large spool holder
and place a felt pad under the thread
spool. This is to prevent the thread from
reeling off too fast.
