6. Clamp the thread behind the cutter (3) and tear off the loose end
behind it.
7. Fit the bobbin on the bobbin shaft (2).
8. Turn the bobbin clockwise until it clicks.
9. Pull the bobbin lever (1) up.
The hook thread is normally wound on when sewing is in progress.
However, you can also wind on the hook thread without having to
sew, e.g. if you require a full bobbin in order to start sewing.
Winding-on procedure
1. Switch on the sewing machine.
2. Press the foot pedal forwards.
The machine sews and winds the hook thread from the thread
reel onto the bobbin. When the bobbin is full, the machine
automatically stops winding. The bobbin lever moves down.
The cutter is automatically moved into its basic vertical position.
3. Pull off the full bobbin.
4. Tear off the thread behind the cutter.
5. Insert the full bobbin into the hook ( sect. 5.5 Replacing the
hook thread bobbin, p. 23).
6. Repeat the winding-on procedure with an empty bobbin, as
described above.

To reduce the tension:
1. Turn the adjusting screw (1) counterclockwise.
5.7 Setting the thread regulator
The thread regulator determines the needle thread quantity to be
guided around the hook. The required thread quantity depends on the
thickness of the material to be sewn, thread strength, and stitch length.

Correct setting:
The loop of the needle thread slides at low tension over the thickest
point of the hook.
If the needle thread loop passes the maximum hook diameter, then
the largest thread quantity will be required. If the setting is correct,
then the thread tensioning spring (2) will be pulled up approx. 0.5 mm

(1) - Adjusting wheel for the sewing foot pressure
5.10 Setting the sewing foot pressure
The adjusting wheel at the top left of the machine arm determines the
contact pressure of the sewing foot on th e mate rial to be sewn . The
pressure can be adjusted continuously by turning the wheel.
The correct pressure depends on the material:
• Lower pressure for soft materials, e.g. cloth
• Greater pressure for strong materials, e.g. leather
Correct setting
The material to be sewn does not slip and is fed smoothly.
Faults with incorrectly set sewing foot pressure
• If the pressure is too high: The material could tear
• If the pressure is too weak: The material could slip
