Spool disc/cone thread adapter It is advantageous to use the spool disc 37 when sewing with large spools (5,000 - 10,000 m). To do this, place the cone thread adapter 36 onto the spool pin 35. With synthetic threads, the spool discs help eliminate vibration of the cones/spools aiding in smoother feeding of the threads. Clip on thread guide Use the clip on thread guide accessory when sewing with decorative thread. Clip this onto the telescoping thread guide 32 and thread the machine as shown in the illustration. Use the thread net and/or the thread unreeling disc if needed. Presser foot lifter The presser foot can be raised and lowered using the presser foot lifter 43. The maximum vertical lift of 6.5 mm for the presser foot for particularly thick fabrics can be achieved by pressing the presser foot lifter towards the rear. Once an initial thread chain has been created, the presser foot lifter no longer needs to be raised if you continue working with the same thread and presser foot. It is sufficient to gently lift the front part of the presser foot using your thumb. Slide the fabric under the raised part of the presser foot. The fabric is automatically taken up and fed into the machine when you activate the foot control. 10
