Bobbin Threading
Before inserting the bobbin into the bobbin case,
hold the bobbin in your hand and make sure
that the thread is coming off the bobbin in
a
counterclockwise direction (it should look like a “P”).
This will allow the bobbin thread to move correctly
and to stay lodged in the bobbin tension guide.
Then draw the thread down and
slip it into the lower thread guide.
Draw the thread down and slip it into
needle bar thread guide on the left.
Thread the needle eye
from the font to back.

draw thread down
into the tension area
and then around the
check spring holder.
THREADING THE MACHINE
Raise the take-up lever to its

– Counter clockwise.
NO POWER
Check main power supply is turned on, foot control is connected.
MACHINE NOT FEEDING FABRIC
Check the Feed Dogs are raised and clean. These are the teeth under the presser
foot that feed the fabric when stitching. When the drop feed lever is moved from the
lowered position to the raised position the feed teeth do not come up at the needle
plate until you turn the balance wheel towards you.
Check stitch length is set for the correct weight of fabric
SKIPPED / BAD STITCHING:
Rethread the machine with the presser foot raised and the take up
lever in the highest position. Follow the threading guides and check
the thread is in the take up lever.
Check – the needle is inserted correctly, (flat side to the back)
Check – the needle is not bent or blunt and is the correct type of needle
Check – the tension setting is correct (average setting for a straight stitch is approx. 4)
Check – the tension disc area is clean
Check – the bobbin is placed in bobbin case correctly
Follow these simple steps and you’ll soon be enjoying your new project…
