HELPFUL HINTS
REPLACING THREAD SPOOLS
When replacing thread spools, the following steps may be helpful for quick changeover.
1. Cut off existing threads near the spools. Tie the cut ends thread from new spools as illustrated
(seamen's knot).
2. Raise presser foot.
3. Lower needle bar to its lowest position by turning hand wheel AWAY FROM YOU. Carefully pull
the existing threads until the connecting knots pass through needle eye and looper eyes.
CUTTING NEEDLE THREAD
Frayed thread may make needle threading difficult.
Draw the thread near the thread cutter on the needle plate and push the thread cutter lever. Or
draw the thread under the Moving cutter and turn the hand wheel toward you to cut the thread as
illustrated.
