Threading the upper thread

This is a simple operation but it is important to carry out correctly as by

not doing so several sewing problems could result.

- Start by raising the needle to its highest point (1), and also raise the

presser foot to release the tension discs (2).

Note:

For safety, it is strongly suggested you turn off the power before

threading.

- Lift up the spool pin. Place the spool of thread on the holder with the

thread coming off the spool as shown. For small thread spools, place

small side of spool holder next to spool (3).

- Draw thread from spool through the upper thread guide (4).

- Guide thread around thread guide (5) pulling thread through pre-

tension spring as illustrated.

- Thread tension module by leading thread down right channel and up

left channel (6). During this process it is helpful to hold the thread

between the spool and thread guide (4).

- At the top of this movement pass thread from right to left through the

slotted eye of the take-up lever and then downwards again (7).

- Now pass thread behind the thin wire needle clamp guide (8) and then

down to the needle which should be threaded from front to back.

- Pull about 6-8 inches of thread to the rear beyond the needle eye.

Trim thread to length with built in thread cutter (9).

Thread tension / Tensión del hilo

Lower thread tension

To test the bobbin thread tension, remove the bobbin case and bobbin

and hold it by suspending it by the thread. Jerk it once or twice. If the

tension is correct, the thread will unwind by about an inch or two.

If the tension is too tight, it does not unwind at all. If the tension is too

loose, it will drop too much. To adjust, turn the small screw on the side

of the bobbin case. (1)

Upper thread tension

Basic thread tension setting: “4“. (2)

To increase the tension, turn the dial to the next number up.

To reduce the tension, turn the dial to the next number down.

A. Normal thread tension

B. Upper thread tension too loose

C. Upper thread tension too tight

Note:

The bobbin thread tension does not normally have to be adjusted.

1 2

Tensión del hilo inferior

Para controlar la tensión del hilo inferior coger el portacanillas y tire

ligeramente del hilo

. Si la canilla no se desenrolla

suavemente, esto indica que la tensión es demasiado fuerte.

Si por el contrario el hilo sale demasiado fácilmente, esto significa que

La tensión es muy floja.

La tensión es correcta cuando el portacanillas baja unos 10 cm y

después se para colgado al hilo. (1)

Atención:

Normalmente no es necesario cambiar la tensión del hilo inferior.

Tensión del hilo superior

Regulación de base de la tensión del hilo: “4“. (2)

Para aumentar la tensión del hilo superior hay que girar el botón de

regulación hacia un número más alto.

Para aflojar la tensión del hilo se gira dicho botón hacia un número más

bajo.

A. Tensión del hilo normal.

B. Tensión del hilo superior muy floja.
