SPOOL PINS AND SPOOL CAPS
Your sewing 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 in a horizontal position (the thread reels off the stationary spool) or
in a vertical position (the thread spool rotates). Use the horizontal position for all regular sewing threads and the vertical position
for large spools or specialty threads.
AUXILIARY SPOOL PIN
The auxiliary spool pin is used when winding a bobbin from
a second spool of thread or for a second spool when sewing
with a twin needle.
Lift the auxiliary spool pin up and to the right. Slide on a
spool cap. For spools smaller than the medium size spool cap,
place a felt pad under the thread spool to prevent the thread
from reeling off too fast. For larger spools, the felt pad should
not be used.
HORIZONTAL POSITION
Lift the spool pin up slightly from its horizontal position to
easily place the thread spool on the pin. The thread should reel
over the top, in a counterclockwise direction, as shown in the
picture. Slide on a spool cap and then move the spool pin back
to the horizontal position.
Each machine comes with two spool caps on the spool pin.
For medium sized thread spools, the medium sized cap (A) is
placed in front of the spool. For large thread spools, the large
cap (B) is placed in front of the spool.
7KHÁDWVLGHRI WKHVSRROFDSVKRXOGEHSUHVVHGÀUPO\DJDLQVW
the spool. There should be no space between spool cap and
thread spool.
A small spool cap is included as an accessory for your
machine. The small spool cap can be used for small thread
spools.
Note: Not all thread spools are manufactured in the same way. If you
experience problems with the thread, turn it in the opposite way or use the
vertical position.
VERTICAL POSITION
Lift the spool pin up and all the way to the right. Lock the
spool pin in the vertical position by slightly pressing it down.
Slide on the large spool cap. For spools smaller than the
medium size spool cap or when using specialty threads, place
a felt pad under the thread spool to prevent the thread from
reeling off too fast. For larger spools, the felt pad is not
needed.
Note: No spool cap should be placed on top of the spool as this prevents
the spool from rotating.

4. Let the needle threader gently swing back. The hook pulls
the thread through the needle eye and forms a loop behind
the needle.
5. Pull the thread loop out behind the needle. Place the
thread under the presser foot.
Note: The needle threader is designed to be used for size 70-120 needles.
You cannot use the needle threader for size 60 needles or smaller, the wing
needle, twin needle, triple needle or when the Sensor One-Step Buttonhole
Foot is on. There are also some other optional accessories that require
manual threading of the needle.
When threading the needle manually, make sure that the
needle is threaded from front to back. The white presser foot
ankle makes it easy to see the eye of the needle. The bobbin

6. Pull out the auxiliary spool pin and slide on a spool cap.
For spools smaller than the medium size spool cap, place a
felt pad under the thread spool.

thread reels off the spool.
8. Right needle: Thread the machine as before but this thread

needle manually.
Note: If using specialty threads (such as metallic threads) its weight and
irreglular surface increases the thread tension. By reducing the tension, the
risk of needle breakage is prevented.
Note: Only use symmetrical twin needles (C).
Do not use this type of twin needle (D), since
it may damage your sewing machine.
