THREADING THE BOBBIN THREAD 1. Raise the needle to its highest position by rotating the hand wheel counter clockwise (toward you). 2. Remove the bobbin cover plate by pushing the release button to the right. Bobbin cover will pop up sufficiently to allow you to remove the cover. 3. Insert the bobbin making sure the bobbin rotates counterclockwise when you pull the thread. NOTE: This is a very important step. The bobbin must rotate counterclockwise when thread is pulled. 4. Pull thread through the slot (A) and then to the left. 5. With a finger held gently on top of the bobbin, pull the thread until it stops in the slot (B). Then pull the thread along the groove on the needle plate until it is snipped with cutter on the top left. NOTE: Sewing can be started without having to pull up the bobbin thread. 6. Replace the clear bobbin cover plate onto the needle plate. A Cutter Coupe Fil Cortador Groove Cannelure Surco B A 14
