SPOOL PINS HORIZONTAL SPOOL PIN for normal thread spool Place thread spool on the pin and secure with a spool cap to ensure smooth flow of thread. If the thread spool has a thread retaining slit, it should be placed to the right. Select the correct spool pin cap according to the type and diameter of spool being used. The diameter of the spool pin cap should always be larger than that of the spool itself.

Lower the presser foot to sew. 2. Raise the lifter to the middle position to insert or remove fabric. 3. Lift it to its highest position to accommodate thicker fabrics. FEED DOG CONTROL The feed dogs control the movement of the fabric that is being sewn. They should be raised for all general sewing purposes and lowered for darning or free-motion sewing so that you, not the feed dogs, are guiding the fabric. 12
