KNOWING YOUR SEWING MACHINE
CAUTION
● If the spool or the spool cap is not positioned
correctly, the thread may become tangled around
the spool pin or the needle may 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 needle may break.
Memo
● When sewing with fine, cross-wound thread, use
the small spool cap, and leave a small space
between the cap and the spool.
