LOWER/UPPER THREADING
j
Cut the thread, and then remove the bobbin.
Note
When removing the bobbin, pull up only on the bobbin.
Do not pull on the bobbin winder seat, otherwise it may
become loose, resulting in damage to the machine.
• Winding the bobbin thread improperly may cause
the thread tension to loosen, breaking the needle
and possibly resulting in injury.
■ Winding the Bobbin Using the Spool Pin
The main spool pin cannot be used to wind the
bobbin while sewing. For details, see "Using the
Supplemental Spool Pin" on page 24.
