WINDING THE BOBBIN

Fig. 4
Fig. 5

Disengage the hand wheel (1, Fig. 4) from the stitching mechanism by turning the
clutch (2, Fig. 4) toward you or counter clockwise. Place a spool of thread on one of
the spool pins and lead thread through the arm thread guide (3, Fig. 3). Run end of
thread through a hole in the bobbin edge and place bobbin on spindle of bobbin winder
(4, Fig. 3) fitting the notch on bobbin over small pin on spindle. Push bobbin winder
(5, Fig. 3) to the right, and hold thread end loosely then start machine slowly.
Bobbin will stop winding when it is filled. Turn clutch away from you until sewing
mechanism is again engaged so that needle moves when you turn the hand wheel.
Break off loose thread end used to start the winding.

as long as the button is held in.

ADJUSTING THE TENSONS

Alw’is djst the upper tension with the presser foot down, as the tension is released
when it is raised. To increase the tension on the upper thread, turn dial (Fig. 1 3) to the
right. To decrease, turn to the left.
Before adjusting ‘ower tension be sure that the ma
chine is threaded properly. When necessary to change
the bobbin tension, turn small screw (Fig. 14) on side
of the bobbin case clockwise to tighten,. counter
clockwise to loosen.
When the upper tensions are properly balanced, a
Qer?ct stitch wiN be formed with both threads inter
)cckin in fabric (Fig. 15).
When the upper tension is too tight, the lower thread
is pulled up over the upper thread which is lying flat
on the fabric (Fig. 16). When the upper tension is
too loose, the upper thread forms loops over the Fig. 1 3
