Operational Instructions

Part 1 - How to Wind Your Threads
1. Raise the thread spindle (C) by grasping the exposed top
and pulling upward until the threaded spindle (C) is fully
extended. Place your thread on the thread spindle (C).
2. Press on the Bobbin Winder Spool (T) and turn it clockwise
to release the Bobbin Holder.
3. Place an empty metal bobbin on the raised Bobbin Holder
and put the thread around the metal bobbin as below.
4. Once you have some thread on the metal bobbin, turn the
Hand Wheel (K) clockwise to start transferring the thread.
To automate this process, you can power the sewing
machine and connect the foot pedal. Pressing on the foot
pedal will automatically rotate the Hand Wheel (K) to
thread faster.

Part 2 - How to Thread the Main Unit
Once you have winded your threads, you can now remove the
existing installed ones on the machine. To remove, simply pull
out the threads. Also, remove the metal bobbin in the Bobbin
Compartment (I).
1. Pull out the metal bobbin from the Bobbin Holder (V) and
be careful not to lose the spring.
2. Attach the spring back and place your metal bobbin with
thread on the Bobbin Spindle.

3. Place the metal bobbin together with the Bobbin Spindle
back to the Bobbin Holder (V).
5. Pull the thread through the second thread guide ②. Here
the thread goes over the tension screw (N) and must be
positioned between the two washers.
6. Pull the thread in the direction towards the front of the
machine through the thread guide ③. After that pull the
thread through the thread guide ④.
4. Pull the thread through the rst thread guide ①.

7. Pull the thread down to the thread guide ⑤. 9. Pull the thread through the needle eye ⑦using the
threader from the front toward the back of the machine.
You can raise the needle ( R ) by turning the handwheel (K)
clockwise.
10. Pull approximately 9.84 inches of thread through the
needle (R) and lay it on the deck under the presser foot (F).
8. Pull the thread down through the thread guide ⑥.

Part 3 - Bottom Bobbin Replacement
1. Remove the cover from the Bobbin Compartment (I). Place
the bobbin with a thread of your choice in the bobbin
holder (J) leaving approximately 9.84 inches of thread
extended out from the bobbin holder (J).
2. Turn the handwheel (K) clockwise. The needle will go
down, picking up the bobbin thread. Continue to turn the
handwheel until the needle (R) has descended fully and
then returned to the highest raised point. Raise the
presser foot (F) and bring the spool thread around to the
front. Pull it gently up and you will see that it has caught
the bobbin thread. Pull the two threads towards the rear
(away from you) and lay them under the presser foot (F).
3. Place the cover back into the Bobbin Compartment (I).

Part 4 - How to Sew
Part 5 - Adjusting Tension
Part 6 - How to Change Needles
Note: It is important that the top and bottom threading is
correct. Check carefully and practice before beginning to sew.
Improper threading will damage the lockstitch.
1. After you have nished sewing, place your cloth or fabric
of choice beneath the Presser Foot (F). Using the Hand
Wheel or the Foot Pedal, begin sewing.
2. Control the speed using the Speed Button (L) and to use
the foot pedal, use the On/O Switch (A).
1. In normal circumstances you do not need to adjust the
tension and it has already been set for maximum
performance. However, if you think that the stitches are
too loose or too tight you can adjust the tension.
2. Loosen the stitch by turning the tension screw (N)
counterclockwise.
3. Tighten the stitch by turning the tension screw (N)
clockwise. Sewing heavier fabric may require loosening
the stitch. Very light fabric may require tightening the
stitch. Bobbin tension cannot be adjusted.
1. Turn the handwheel (K) clockwise to raise the needle (R) to
its highest position.

No electric power
• Possible reasons: There is a problem with the external
power supply, or it's incorrectly plugged.
• Solution: Check on the external power supply and/or
check/replace the plug.
Broken threads
• Possible reasons: The reasons can be due to the fact that
the line button is rigid, or the sewing thread or fabric is too
thick or too hard. It also can be due to the fact that an
incorrect or a broken needle is in use.
• Solution: To resolve the break, make sure to relax the line
button, replace the bobbin, replace the original machine
needle and tighten the thimble screw or ensure the use of
compatible fabric.
