Otherwise the thread may become tangled around the
supplemental spool pin.

Slide the spool cap onto the spool pin as far as possible
to the right, with the rounded side on the left.
CAUTION
• If the spool or the spool cap is not installed
correctly, the thread may become tangled
around the spool pin, causing the needle to
break.
• Three spool cap sizes are available, allowing
you to choose a spool cap that best fits the size
of spool being used. If the spool cap is too
small for the spool being used, the thread may
catch on the slit in the spool or the machine
may be damaged. When using mini king thread
spool, use the thread spool insert (mini king
thread spool).
For details on thread spool insert (mini king
thread spool), refer to "Memo" on page 24.

• When using the spool as shown below, use the

Note
• Be sure to wind the thread clockwise around the
bobbin, otherwise the thread may become

bobbin is wound without cutting the thread
using the cutter built into the guide slit in the
bobbin winder seat, the thread may become
tangled in the bobbin or the needle may bend
or break when the bobbin thread starts to run
out.
