Changing a cone of thread does not require rethreading the entire thread path. If thread is already in the
system, the fastest and easiest way to change a cone of thread is to remove the old cone but leave a good
length of the old thread on the machine.
1. Place the new cone of thread on the thread tree with the old thread end sticking out of the thread
tube and over the new cone.
2. Extend the thread tube ½ to 1 inch above the cone. Neglecting to extend the thread tube ½ to 1 inch
above the cone could result in frequent thread breaks.
3. After placing the cone of thread on the machine, the old thread will be trapped on the inside and
underneath the cone. From near the tube, pull the thread free and over the top of the new cone.
4. Tie the end of the old thread to the end of the new thread using a square knot.
5. Lift the pinch roller and carefully pull the thread from the back of the needle. This will pull the new
thread completely through the system. If the knot is tight and small enough, it will even slip
