Horizontal Position; Auxiliary Spool Pin - Husqvarna Viking SAPPHIRE 9650Q User Manual

SPOOL PINS
Your machine has two spool pins; a main spool pin and
an auxiliary spool pin. The spool pins are designed for all
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).
Use the horizontal position for regular sewing threads and
the vertical position for specialty threads.

HORIZONTAL POSITION

Place a spool cap and the thread spool on the spool pin.
Make sure that the thread reels off the spool counter clock-
wise and slide on a second spool cap. Use a spool cap
slightly larger than the thread spool.
The flat side of the spool cap should be pressed firmly
against the spool. There should be no space between the
spool cap and the thread spool.
Note: Not all thread spools are manufactured in the same way. If
you experience problems with the thread, turn it in the opposite way or
use the vertical position.
VERTICAL POSITION
Lift the spool pin up and all the way to the right. Lock
the spool pin in the vertical position by slightly pressing it
down. Slide on the large spool cap. For spools smaller than
the medium size spool cap or when using specialty threads,
place a felt pad under the thread spool to prevent the
thread from reeling off too fast. For larger spools, the felt
pad is not needed.
Do not place a spool cap on top of the vertical spool pin as
it may prevent the spool from rotating.
Note: When the spool pin is used in the vertical position, the thread
tension might need to be adjusted manually.

AUXILIARY SPOOL PIN

The auxiliary spool pin is used when winding a bobbin
from a second spool of thread or for a second spool when
sewing with a twin needle.
Lift the auxiliary spool pin up and to the left. Slide on
the large spool cap. For spools smaller than the medium
size spool cap, place a felt pad under the thread spool to
prevent the thread from reeling off too fast. For larger
spools, the felt pad is not needed.
