4.6) Inserting Lower Thread and Tension Adjustment 
 

 

(Fig. 19) 

 
 
A. After placing a bobbin (2) in a bobbin case (1), push the thread through the thread groove (3) and 
hook it under the tension adjusting plate spring (4). To tighten the lower thread, turn the tension 
adjusting screw (5) clockwise; turn it counterclockwise to loosen. Adjust the tension of the lower thread 
so that it will fall slowly by gravity when the bobbin case (1) is dropped while holding the end of the 
thread. (See Fig. 19) 
 
 
B. Inserting and Removing the Bobbin Case 
Hold the bobbin case handle (6) and insert it into the hook. Pull the handle (6) to remove. (The bobbin 
(2) will fall out if the handle is let go.) (See Fig. 19) 
 
 
 

 

 

Turn off the power switch when routing the upper thread. If the operator 

 

    Caution  

mistakenly presses down on the  pedal while switched on, the machine will  

 

 

 

start automatically and can cause physical injuries. 

 

 

 

When using the clutch motor, be aware that the motor will continue to rotate  

 

 

 

for a while after the power is switched off. Start to work on the sewing  

 

 

 

machine only after the motor has come to a complete stop. 

 

4.7) Routing Upper Thread 
 

   Place the thread take-up lever at the highest position and route the upper thread in the order  
   indicated in Figures 20 & 21.
