Spool Pin - Singer SUPERA Manual De Instrucciones

Spool Pin

Your machine has two spool pins, a main spool pin and an Auxiliary Spool Pin. The spool pins are designed for all types of thread.
The main spool pin is used in a horizontal position (the thread reels off the spool) and the Auxiliary Spool Pin in a vertical position
(the thread spool rotates). Use the horizontal position for normal threads and the vertical position for large spools or specialty
threads.
Main Spool Pin
Place the thread spool on the spool pin. Make sure that the
A
thread reels off the spool counter clockwise and slide on a
spool cap. Use a spool cap slightly larger than the thread spool.
For narrow thread spools (A), use a smaller spool cap in front
of the spool. For large thread spools (B), use a larger spool cap
in front of the spool. The flat side of the spool cap should be
pressed firmly against the spool. There should be no space
between the spool cap and the thread spool.
Note: Not all thread spools are manufactured in the same way.
B
If you experience problems with the thread, turn it in the
opposite way or use the vertical position.
Auxiliary Spool Pin
The Auxiliary Spool Pin is used when winding a bobbin thread
from a second spool of thread or when sewing with large
spools or with specialty threads. Insert the Auxiliary Spool Pin
into the designated hole at the top of the machine. Place a felt
pad under the thread spool. This is to prevent the thread from
reeling off too fast. Do not place a spool cap on top of the
spool pin as that would prevent the spool from rotating.
