Easily Changing The Thread Spools - Brother 884-T23 Operation Manual

Memo
• To use a different thread color than the one that
was specified, use the temporary needle bar
setting key, and then change the thread color
setting. (page 106)
• To minimize changing the thread spools, frequently
used thread colors can be specifically assigned to
certain needle bars. (page 107)

Easily changing the thread spools

When replacing the thread spools, it is necessary to re-thread
the upper thread. However, the thread spools can easily be
changed when replacing a thread spool whose thread is
correctly threaded through the machine.
a Cut the thread between the thread spool and the
thread guide.
b Change the thread spool.
c Tie the end of the thread on the new spool with the end
of the thread remaining from the previous color.

d Pull out the old thread just after the needle bar thread
guide.
Continue pulling the thread until the knot is below the
needle. Cut the knot.
e Use the automatic needle-threading mechanism to
thread the needle with the new thread. (page 80)
 This completes the changing of the thread spool.
Note
• When pulling out the thread, do not pull the knot
through the eye of the needle. If the knot is pulled
through the eye of the needle, the needle may be
damaged.
