switch second so that the thread continues winding to the bobbin while the start switch is stepped on.
(3) When the bobbin finishes winding a certain amount (80 to 90 % of the outside diameter of bobbin) of
thread, the bobbin presser arm is returned to the initial position. Adjust the amount of the winding
thread with the subsidiary arm (No.4).
(4) To wind the bobbin thread during the sewing operation, carry out the procedure (1) above then, the
bobbin winding is performed automatically.
For the bobbin winding mode, refer to the instructions in the paragraph “[3] Explanations of basic
screen, icons and operation “5. The Bobbin Winding screen” is explained below” in the

lubrication oil on the rails and significantly lowers the slide
guide running life.
Clean the slide guide regularly and also pour some grease.
Recommended grease: Multemp PS2 (Produced by Kyodo Yushi Co. Ltd)
