WINDING THE BOBBIN
1. Place the thread and spool cap onto the spool pin.
For smaller spools of thread, place spool cap with the small side next to the spool or use the small spool cap.
2. Snap the thread into the thread guide.
3. Wind the thread clockwise around the bobbin winder tension discs.
4. Place the thread end through one of the inner holes in the bobbin as illustrated and place the empty bobbin on the spindle.
5. Hold on to the thread tail and push the bobbin to the right.
20
6. When the bobbin winder spindle is pushed to the right,
“bobbin winding position”, the symbol “ “ is shown on the LCD screen.
It will disappear from the LCD screen when the bobbin winder spindle is push to the left, “sewing position”.
7. Hold the thread tail securely in one hand.
8. Press on the foot control to start the sewing machine.
9. After the bobbin has wound a few turns stop the machine and cut the thread near the hole of the bobbin. Continue fi lling the bobbin until it is full. The motor stops automatically when the bobbin is full. Stop the machine. Push the bobbin winder spindle to left.
10. Cut the thread and then remove the bobbin.
Please Note: When the bobbin winder switch is pushed to the right, “bobbin winding position”, the machine will not sew and the handwheel will not turn. To start sewing, push the bobbin winder switch to the left “sewing position”.
21
INSERTING THE BOBBIN
Attention: Turn power switch to off (“O”) before inserting or removing the bobbin.
When inserting or removing the bobbin, the needle must be fully raised.

(arrow).
2. Pull the thread through the slit (A).
3. Pull the thread toward the left and along the inside of the spring until it slips into the notch (B) being sure that the thread does not slip out of the slit (A).
4. Pull out about 15 cm (6 inches) of thread and slide on the bobbin cover. (C)
22
THREADING THE UPPER THREAD
Please Note: It is important to thread correctly to prevent sewing problems.
Start by raising the needle to its highest point, by turning the hand wheel toward you. Raise the presser foot lift to open the tension discs.
1. Lift up the spool pin. Place the spool of thread on the spool pin so that the thread comes from the front of the spool, then place the spool cap at the end of the spool pin.
2. Pull the thread from the spool through the upper thread guide.
3. Guide the thread around the thread guide pulling the thread through the pre-tension spring as illustrated.
23
24
4. Pull the thread down between the tension discs.
5. Then, down and around the check spring holder and back up to the take up lever.
6. Pull the thread from right to the left through the slotted eye of the take-up lever and then down again.
7. Pass the thread behind the fl at, horizontal thread guide.
8. Guide the thread into the wire loop.
9. Thread the end of the thread through the needle from front to back, and pull out about 10 cm of thread.
Or use the needle threader to thread the needle. (On the next page).
NEEDLE THREADER
Attention: Turn power switch to the off position (“O”).
Raise the needle to its highest position and lower the presser foot.
1. Lower the needle threader lever slowly and draw the thread through the thread guide as illustrated and then to the right.
2. The needle threader automatically turns to the threading position and the tiny hook passes through the needle eye.
3. Take the thread in front of the needle into the hook from the bottom as illustrated.
4. Hold the thread loosely and release the lever slowly. The hook will turn and pull the thread through the needle eye forming a loop.
Pull the rest of the thread through the needle eye.
25
TOP THREAD TENSION
Tight Loose
- Basic top thread tension setting: “4”
- To increase the tension, turn the dial to the next number up. To reduce the tension, turn the dial to the next number down.
- Proper setting of tension is important to good sewing.
- There is no single tension setting appropriate for all the stitch functions and fabrics.
- 90% of all sewing will be between “3” and “5” (“4” is basic setting).
- For all decorative sewing you will always obtain a nicer stitch and less fabric puckering when top tension is reduced by 1 number so the upper thread appears on the bottom side of your fabric.

3. Pull both threads to the back under the presser foot.
CUTTING THE THREAD
Raise the presser foot. Remove the fabric, draw the threads to the left side of the face cover and cut using the thread cutter.
The threads are cut at the proper length to start the next seam.
27
PRESSER FOOT LIFT
1. The presser foot lift raises and lowers your presser foot.
2. When sewing several layers or thick fabrics, the presser foot can be raised higher for easy positioning of the fabric under the foot.
RAISE OR LOWER THE FEED DOGS
With the accessory box off the machine, the feed dog adjustment lever can be seen on the base in back of the sewing machine.
Sliding the lever to the “ “ (b) will lower the feed dog, for example during button sewing. If you wish to continue sewing normally, slide the lever to the “ “ (a) in order to raise the feed dogs.
The feed dog will not come up until you turn the handwheel or start sewing, even if the lever is slid to the right. Make a complete turn to raise the feed dogs.

USEFUL SKILLS
Sewing corners
Reverse
Free arm
1. Stop the sewing machine when you reach a corner.
2. Lower the needle into the fabric with the hand wheel or by pressing the needle up/ down button once.
3. Raise the presser foot.
4. Use the needle as a pivot and turn the fabric.
5. Lower the presser foot and resume sewing.
Reverse stitching is used to secure the threads at the beginning and at the end of a seam.
Press the reverse button and sew 4-5 stitches.
The machine will sew forward when the button is released.
Free arm sewing is convenient for sewing tubular areas such as pant hems and cuffs.
36
Sewing on heavy fabric
Cardboard or thick fabric
The black button on the right side of the presser foot will lock the presser foot in a horizontal position if you push it in before lowering the presser foot. This ensures even feeding at the beginning of a seam and helps when sewing multiple layers of fabric such as sewing over seams when hemming jeans.
When you reach the point of an increased thickness, lower the needle and raise the presser foot. Press the toe of the foot and push in the black button, then lower the foot and continue sewing.
The black button releases automatically after sewing few stitches.
You also can place another piece of fabric with the same thickness at the back of the seam. Or support the presser foot while feeding by hand and sewing toward the folded side.
37
STRAIGHT STITCHES AND NEEDLE POSITION
Changing the needle position
These setting apply only to patterns 01-05. The pre-set position is “3.5”, center position. When you press the “-“ stitch width adjustment button, the needle position will move to the left. When you press the “+” stitch width adjustment button, the needle position will move to the right. On the LCD screen, the point illustration and the number indicate the needle position.
Changing the stitch length
To shorten the stitch length, press the “-“ stitch length adjustment button. For a longer stitch length, press the
“+” stitch length adjustment button.
Generally speaking, the thicker the fabric, thread and needle, the longer the stitch should be.
ZIGZAG STITCHES
Adjusting the stitch width
The maximum zigzag stitch width for zigzag stitching is “7.0”; however, the width can be reduced on any patterns. The width increases as you press the “+” stitch width adjustment button from “0.0-7.0”.
Adjusting the stitch length
The density of zigzag stitches increase as the setting of stitch length approaches “0.2”.
Most zigzag stitches are sewn at “1.0-2.5”.
Dense zigzag stitches (close together) are referred to as a satin stitch.
