3. To insert the bobbin case into the machine, grasp the
bobbin case with thumb and index finger. Do not lift
the lever on bobbin case. Fit the bobbin case onto
the hook spindle in the machine. Rotate the case until
the open throat keys into the alignment notch in the
middle of the hook. Push the case in until it stops in
place. Push the case inward further until it clicks (see
Figure 17). Allow the thread end to hang freely.
