TAKEOUTTHE BOBBINCASE 1,
SLOWLY TURN THE WHEEL TOWARDS YOU UNTIL
THE NEEDLE
IS AS HIGH AS IT WILL
2,
OPEN THE COVER PLATE,
3,
USE TWO FINGERS
GO,
TO PULL
THE LATCH OF THE BOBBIN CASE n PULL THE BOBBIN CASE OUT OF THE MACHINE, WHEN YOU LET GO OF THE LATCH, THE BOBBIN WILL
DROP OUT,
THREADTHE BOBBINCASE 1,
MAKE SURE THERE IS ENOUGH COTTON ON THE BOBBIN,
2,
HOLD THE BOBBIN CASE IN ONE HAND, USE YOUR OTHER HAND TO PUT THE
BOBBIN INTO IT, PUT Tb!!E BOBBIN IN WITH THE LOOSE END OF CGTTON HANG1 NG DOWN IN FRONT (FACING

PULL THE THREAD INTO THE SLOT IN THE EDGE OF THE BOBBIN CASE, -SLOT
4,
PULL THE THREAD UNDER THE TENSION

SPRING AND
ENSION
I NT0 THE SMALL HOLE ON THE SIDE OF THE BOBBIN CASE,
5,
PULL THE LATCH,
AND KEEP IT OPEN
SO THE BOBBIN WILL
NOT FALL OUT,
PUT BACKTHE BOBBINCASE 1 n HOLD THE BOBBIN CASE BY THE LATCH a PUT IT
2,
IN PLACE,
HOLDING
LET GO OF THE LATCH, THE BOBBIN CASE IN, HEAR A SMALL ‘CLICK’,
IT UP THIS WAY:
AND PRESS UNTIL
THIS
MEANS THE BOBBIN CASE WILL STAY IN PLACE,
YOU
SPRING
PUT IN THE NEEDLE 1,
SLOWLY TURN THE WHEEL TOWARDS YOU UNTIL
THE NEEDLE BAR IS AS HIGH
AS IT WILL
GO,
2,
LOOSEN THE NEEDLE CLAM? SCREW,

HOLD THE NEEDLE WITH THE THICK TURN IT SO THE FLAT SIDE
END
IS FACING
TO THE RIGHT, NOTE :
ON A FEW MACHINES, SIDE

TO KEEP YOUR MACHINE RUNNING WELL,
CLEAN IT AND OIL
AFTER YOU HAVE DONE A LOT OF SEWING,
AND OIL

OR AT ALL THE SMALL HOLES,
USE SEWING MACHINE OIL, DO NOT USE ANY OTHER KIND
OF OIL,
PUT ONLY ONE OR Th’O DROPS OF 01 L AT EACH HOLE,
TOO MUCH OIL
GET ON THE SEWING,
