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, and to change presser foot. 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, freehand embroidery and monogramming so that you, not the feed dogs, are guiding the fabric. How to raise the Feed Dogs: 1) Make sure that your presser foot is in the raised (up) position, and that the needle is in the highest position. 2) With the back of the machine facing you, push the feed dog lever down and towards the right (symbol that shows the feed dogs above the line). 3) Turn the machine so that it now faces you, turn the handwheel counterclockwise (towards you) until you hear or see the feed dogs click back into place. 12
