Installing The Bobbin; Removing The Bobbin Case - Brother PR670E Operation Manual

1. Installing the Bobbin

When the machine is purchased, only the bobbin
case is installed in the hook. Insert a bobbin
wound with bobbin thread for embroidering. For
precautions concerning the bobbin, refer to

Note
• The machine does not indicate how much
bobbin thread is remaining. Before starting
to embroider make sure that there is
enough bobbin thread for the pattern.
• Make sure to clean the bobbin case every
time the bobbin is changed. For details on
cleaning the bobbin case, refer to "Cleaning
the bobbin case" on page 212.

Installing the bobbin
Memo
• This embroidery machine is not equipped
with a bobbin-winder. Use pre-wound (L
type) bobbins.
• The optional bobbin winder (stand-alone
type) and optional metal bobbins can also
be used. (Refer to page 22, 205.)
a Insert the bobbin into the bobbin case.
Note
• Check that the thread winds off the bobbin
clockwise as shown in the illustration. If the
bobbin is installed with the thread winding
off in the opposite direction, the embroidery
will not be sewn correctly.
