Bobbin Winder
3-23
Motor Protection
The bobbin winder motor is equipped with a
thermal switch to protect the motor and drive cir-
cuitry in the event of an overload condition. If the
bobbin winder stops due to an overload follow
these steps to correct the problem:
1. Move the actuator lever to the OFF position.
2. Clear the obstruction and lubricate the drive
shaft (refer to Figure 3-29).
3. When the motor cools, the thermal switch
will automatically reset.
4. Move the actuator lever to the ON position to
resume operation.
Bobbins
The bobbin winder is designed for use with the aluminum bobbin spool (p/n 008499-01) provided
with the unit. If bobbin spools from other sources are used, the bobbin may be improperly
retained on the bobbin winder shaft. Most non-
standard bobbin spools have a slot in the spool
hub that engages the bobbin winder shaft spring
and holds the bobbin in place. If this type of bob-
bin spool is used, you must reposition the shaft
spring. Refer to Figure 3-30 and follow the steps
below:
1. Use a needle to disengage the spring from
the standard (upper) hole in the shaft.
2. Slide the spring into the shaft until the spring
tail snaps into the second (lower) retaining
hole.
3. This is the operating position for slotted hub
bobbin spools.
