Bobbin Winder and Bobbins

A bobbin winder is included with your machine. A properly wound

bobbin should be snug and have even layers of thread. A sloppy

or mushy wound bobbin will result in poor stitch quality.

To Wind a Bobbin

1. Insert an empty bobbin on the bobbin winder spindle (g 30).

2. Place a cone of thread on the holder.

3. Place the thread through the guide above the cone of thread

(g. 31).

4. Insert the thread through the top guide hole on the bobbin

thread tension, then around the tension disk counterclockwise

and through the bottom thread guide (g. 32).

5. Wrap the thread around the bobbin clockwise three or four

times.

6. Push trip mechanism forward until it snaps into position( g.

33).

Use step 7 if you plan to quilt while your bobbin is winding or

use step 8 if you are winding bobbins without quilting.

7. The bobbin winder will start winding the bobbin once you press

the start/stop key. You can quilt while your bobbin is winding

once it is full it will stop.

8. To wind your bobbin without quilting, remove the thread from

the needle. Remove your bobbin and bobbin case from the ma-

chine. Select Manual stitch mode on the Home screen. Press

the start on the handle or touch the start icon on the screen.

Note: The needle will continue to move up and down while you

are lling the bobbin.

9. The bobbin will automatically stop when it is full. The bobbin

should ll to just below the rim. Having the bobbin too full will

cause tension problems. Note: the machine will not stop

until the stop button is pressed on the handle bar or the

stop icon is pressed on the screen.
