base located at the back of the machine. Make
sure the slot of the thread guide pole grips the rib
in the base hole.
2. Pull the thread guide pole to its highest position.
Align the thread guide portion with the spool pins.
Placing the Foam Pads and Spool Holders
Remove the spool holders. Place the foam pads and
the spool holders. The foam pads help stabilizing the
