Free arm

To use the free arm, slide off the accessory tray. When
attached, a hook keeps the accessory tray securely
attached to the machine. Remove the tray by sliding it
to the left.

Leveling the machine base plate

To make sure your machine stands steadily on your
sewing surface you can adjust the base plate height.
Turn the base plate adjusting screw (A) by hand. Turn
clockwise to lower and counter-clockwise to raise the
base plate.

Mounting machine in sewing cabinet

There are two holes on the underside of the machine
designed for mounting the machine into a sewing
cabinet. Align the holes (indicated in the picture) with
the corresponding holes in the cabinet base. Attach the
machine with screws.

Thread cutter

To use the thread cutter, pull the thread from back to
front as shown (B).

Spool pins

Your machine has two spool pins, a main spool pin and
an auxiliary spool pin. The spool pins are designed for
many types of thread. The main spool pin is adjustable
and can be used both in a horizontal position (the
thread reels off the spool) and a vertical position (the
thread spool rotates). The horizontal position can be
used for most sewing and embroidery threads, and the
vertical position can be used for many specialty threads.
Horizontal position
Place a spool cap and the thread spool on the spool pin.
Make sure that the thread reels over the top and slide
on the second spool cap.
Use a spool cap slightly larger than the thread spool.
For narrow thread spools, use a smaller spool cap in
front of the spool. For large thread spools, use a larger
spool cap in front of the spool.
The fl at side of the spool cap should be pressed fi rmly
against the spool. There should be no space between the
spool cap and the thread spool.
