UPPER THREADING Note • When using 2 spools of thread, make sure that both spools are feeding in the same direction. • Make sure that the spools do not touch each other, otherwise the thread will not feed off smoothly, the needle may break, or the thread may break or become tangled. In addition, make sure that the spools do not touch the telescopic thread guide at the center. • Make sure that the thread is not caught under the spool. c Pull the thread off the spool. Pass the thread from the back to the front through the thread guides at the top. Using Threads that Unwind Quickly ■ Using the Spool Net If using transparent nylon monofilament thread, metallic thread, or other strong thread, place the included spool net over the spool before using it. When using specialty threads, threading must be done manually. If the spool net is too long, fold it once to match it to the spool size before placing it over the spool. a Spool net b Thread spool c Spool pin d Spool cap Note • Guide the thread so that it does not become entangled with the other thread. • After feeding the thread as instructed, wind any excess thread back onto the spool, otherwise the excess thread will become tangled. d Pass the thread through the machine's thread guide from the right to the left. Memo • When threading the spool with the spool net on, make sure that 5-6 cm (approx. 2 - 2-1/2 inches) of thread are pulled out. • It may be necessary to adjust the thread tension when using the spool net. a Thread guide e Thread the machine according to the steps f to o of "Upper Threading" on page 57. 64
