Spool Pins

Auxiliary spool pin
Your Platinum 955E has two spool pins, a
a
b
main spool pin and an auxiliary spool pin.
The spool pins are suitable for all types of
thread. Fold the spool pin out towards the
Main spool pin
right. Place the thread spool on the spool
pin so that the thread reels clockwise. Slide
on a spool holder (see below) and then fold
the spool pin back to the horizontal posi-
tion.
Main Spool Pin
The main spool pin is adjustable and can be used in a horizontal position (the thread reels
off the stationary spool) or in a vertical position (the thread spool rotates). There are two
spool holders on the spool pin, one large (a) and one small (b). Depending on what thread
spool size or which spool pin position you are using, the spool holders are used differently.
Use the horizontal position for normal threads and the vertical position for large spools or
threads with special characteristics.
Horizontal Position
When using the pin in horizontal position and with
narrow thread spools, place the large spool holder (a)
under the thread spool. The small holder (b) is placed
in front of the thread spool.
If you use large spools, place the small spool holder
Narrow thread spool
(b) under the thread spool and the large holder (a) in
front of it.
The at side of the spool holder should be pressed
rmly against the spool. There should be no space
between spool holder and thread spool.
Large thread spool
Vertical Position
To use the spool pin in its vertical position, fold the
spool pin out towards the right. Slide on
the large spool holder and place a felt pad
under the thread spool. This is to prevent
the thread from reeling off too fast.
