Spool Pins Your machine has two spool pins, a main spool pin and an auxiliary spool pin. The spool pins are designed for all types of thread. The main spool pin is adjustable and can be used both in a horizontal position (the thread reels off the spool) and a vertical position (the thread spool rotates). Use the horizontal position for normal threads and the vertical position for large spools or specialty threads. Horizontal Position Place a felt pad and the thread spool on the spool pin. Make sure that the thread reels off from the front of the spool (A) and slide on a spool cap. Note: Not all thread spools are manufactured in the same way. If you experience problems with the thread, turn the spool so that the thread reels off in the opposite direction or place the thread in the vertical position. Depending on the size of thread spool, reverse the direction of the spool cap (B). Use the small cap when you use cross wound thread (C). Set the thread net over the spool if thread unrolls easily (D). Vertical Position Raise the spool pin to the vertical position. Place a felt pad under the thread spool. This is to prevent the thread from reeling off too fast. Do not place a spool cap on top of the spool pin as that would prevent the spool from rotating. Auxiliary Spool Pin The auxiliary spool pin is used when winding a bobbin thread from a second spool of thread or for a second spool when sewing with a twin needle. Insert the auxiliary spool pin into the hole at the top of the machine (A). Place a felt pad under the thread spool. Main spool pin in vertical position.
