winds to the left.

✽ Run thread through thread notch and under
latch spring, so that a length of thread is ex-
posed.
✽ Always use the bobbin case that was sup-

3 Pull the latch lever of the bobbin case
out and push the bobbin case into the
shuttle race and release the latch lever.
✽ If the latch lever is not set securely on
the hook, it may fly off during sewing
and cause lower thread breakage.
Rotate the hand wheel one full rota-
tion towards you to check that the
bobbin case is set securely.
Open the bobbin thread setting cover
beforehand, then set the bobbin
thread in place. (You can set the bob-

bobbin thread device in the order 1
2, pull in the direction of the arrow 3,
then cut the thread.
★ Quick Bobbin Thread Device
This device cuts the bobbin thread end
to an appropriate length after the bob-
bin has been replaced and holds it at
that length, so the operation of pulling
out the thread can not be skipped.
