ADJUST THREAD TENSION
Test stitch performance on a scrap of material you are going to use.
When the thread tension is properly adjusted, the upper and lower thread
tensions are equal and strong enough to lock both threads in the center of the
material.
If the upper tension is too tight, the upper thread lies straight along the
surface of fabric, correct by turning tension dial, as illustrated in (A).
(Counter-clockwise)
If the upper tension is too loose,
the bottom thread lies straight along the bottom of the fabric, correct by
adjusting the tension dial, as illustrated in (B). (Clockwise)
WINDING THE BOBBIN
Caution: When winding the bobbin, make sure the device is in LOCK/OFF
position.
Always remove the Bobbin (B) from the Bobbin Case (C) on the machine and
unthread the needle before winding a new bobbin.
-
Slide open the Bobbin Case Cover (A) and take out the Bobbin (B) from the Bobbin Case (C) or obtain an empty Class 15 metal bobbin.
-
Put Bobbin Pin (D) into the Hole (E) on the top of the sewing machine and place an empty Bobbin (B) on the Bobbin Pin (D). Cut off here
-
Make sure the thread from Spool (F) unwinds in counter-clockwise direction, then route thread through Thread Guide 1 (G) and then Thread Guide 5 (H).

bobbin is used up or you want to change color of thread, take out the bobbin
from the bobbin case.

- When inserting a new threaded bobbin, make sure thread winds in a clockwise direction as marked on bobbin case and then place in the compartment with about 4 inches long thread left out pulled towards the front of the machine.
Note: The tension of bottom thread is controlled by the magnetized compartment and does not need adjustment.
CATCHING THE BOBBIN THREAD
Raise the presser foot by pulling up the Presser Foot Lifter.- Hold the top thread (A) and turn the Handwheel toward the front of the machine to make the needle go down and back up. You will see a loop formed by the bobbin thread (B).

You are now ready to start sewing.
CHANGING THE NEEDLE
Caution: When changing the needle, make sure the device is in LOCK/OFF position.
-
Raise the needle to its highest position.
-
Hold the needle and loosen the Needle Clamp Screw (E). Remove the old needle.
-
Insert the new needle into the clamp with the flat side toward the right of the machine making sure the eye is straight facing the right or the left of the machine.
Be sure to push the needle all the way up into the bar before tightening the Needle Clamp Screw (E). -
Tighten the Needle Clamp Screw.
-
A coin can be inserted into the notch of the screw clamp to assist with turning to loosen and tighten the screw.
Please note : After replacement of the needle, first move Handwheel
toward the front of the machine to check if there are stitches, and then
operate machine by power ONLY WHEN THE NEEDLE IS IN RIGHT POSITION AND THERE
ARE STITCHES BEING FORMED.
IMPORTANT: Safely store and dispose of used machine needles (pins and
other sharp objects) in a container to prevent them from becoming loose in the
trash, and then place the container in the garbage.
