To wind the hook thread:
1. Fit the bobbin (2) on the bobbin shaft.
2. Thread the hook thread as shown in the following figure.
3. Wind the hook thread clockwise on to the bobbin core.
4. Swing the bobbin winder flap (1) against the bobbin.
5. Switch the main switch on.
6. Start sewing.
7. Once the bobbin is full, the winder switches off automatically
( Service instructions).
8. Pull off the bobbin, clamp the thread under the cutter (3) and
tear it off.

Operation
To replace the hook thread bobin:
Removing an empty bobbin
1. Push the hook cover (2) downwards.
2. Move the needle to the up position.
3. Lift the bobbin housing flap (1).
4. Remove the bobbin housing upper section (7) with the
bobbin (3).
5. Remove the empty bobbin (3) from the bobbin housing upper
section (7).
Inserting a full bobbin
1. Insert the full bobbin (3) into the bobbin housing upper
section (7).
2. Feed the hook thread through the slot (4) under the tensioning
spring (5) into the hole (6).
3. Pull the hook thread approx. 5 cm out of the bobbin
housing (7).
4. The bobbin must rotate in the direction of the arrow when
pulling out the thread.
5. Insert the bobbin housing (7) again.
6. Push the hook cover (2) upwards.
4.7 Thread tension
Together with the bobbin thread tension, the needle thread tension
influences the seam pattern.
The needle thread tension is defined by the pre-tensioner, the
main tensioner and the additional tensioner.
Proper Setting
The main tension (1) should be set as low as possible.
The thread interlacing should be exactly in the middle of the
material being sewn.
With thin sewn material, excessive thread tension can lead to
undesired gathering and thread breakages.

To set the needle thread tension:
1. Set the main tensioner (1) via the control panel so that a even
stitch pattern is achieved.
When the thread is cut, the main tensioner (1) is opened
automatically.

4.7.2 Setting the hook thread tension
CAUTION
Risk of injury from sharp and moving parts!
Cutting or crushing possible.
Switch off the machine before setting the hook
thread tension.
Fig. 10: Setting the hook thread tension (1)
Proper setting
The hook thread tension must be set so that the resulting stitch
pattern looks like the figure in ( p. 27).
At the recommended hook thread tension of e.g. 25 g (measured
with a full bobbin), 12.5 g should be generated by the braking
spring and 12.5 g by the tensioning spring.
The basic setting for the tensioning spring is performed as follows:
• When the bobbin housing contains a full bobbin it must
sink slowly under its own weight.
The braking spring prevents the bobbin running on when the
thread has been cut.

To set the hokk thread tension:
1. Turn back the adjusting screw (3) so far that the tension on
the tensioning spring (2) is completely removed.
2. Bend the braking spring (1) such that half the recommended
hook thread tension value is applied through the braking
spring.
3. Insert the bobbin into the bobbin housing upper section and
thread in the hook thread ( p. 32).
4. Insert the bobbin housing together with the bobbin into the
hook.
5. Hold the free thread end tightly with one hand.
6. Turn the handwheel until the sewing machine performs one
stitch.
7. Pull the hook thread on to the upper side of the needle hole
using the needle thread.
8. Remove the hook thread in the direction of sewing at an angle
of 45°. About half the tension value should be evident.
9. Then tighten the adjusting screw (3) up to the recommended
tension value.

4.8 Setting the needle thread regulator
The needle thread regulator regulates the amount of needle thread
required for forming the stitch. An optimum sewing result is possible only when the thread regulator is exactly adjusted.
Proper setting
With the correct setting the needle thread loop must slide over the
thickest part of the hook at low tension.
When the largest thread quantity is required then the thread
tension spring (3) must be pulled approx. 0.5 mm down from its
upper end position. This occurs when the needle thread loop
matches the maximum hook diameter.

5.3 Control operating modes
The 650-16 control has 4 available operating modes:
• Manual mode (program 000)
Manual mode is the simplest operating mode.
There are no sewing programs and no inputs
for individual sewing steps.
Changes to the fullness, stitch length, thread tension, curve
support and also the activation of other functions are always
implemented immediately.
Thus all the major sewing parameters can be changed manually during the sewing process.
• Automatic mode (program 001 - 999)
Automatic mode allows sewing programs to be executed.
The seams are divided into individual sections (steps) within
the sewing programs. Each step is assigned its own individual sewing parameters such as fullness, curve support etc.
• Quick programming
Quick programming allows very quick and simple creation of
new sewing programs.
• Programming mode
Programming mode allows new sewing programs to be created, edited, deleted, copied, and mirrored (left sleeve / right
sleeve).

control panel with the user interface in symbolic representation.
The program automation permits either manual or automatic control of fullness, optionally upper or lower, curve support and also
the programming of sewing steps with individual parameters.
Up to 999 sewing programs can be saved.
Each sewing program can contain up to 30 sewing steps.
Each sewing step can be assigned various parameters such as
stitch length, fullness values, curve support, thread tension,
segment length etc.
The seam programs are displayed continuously whilst sewing is
in progress. Programs can be mirrored for the other side of the
sewing material.

• The machine performs a reference run.
• The control panel starts in the mode that was active when
it was switched off - MAN or AUTO.
6.3 Control operating modes
The control has four operating modes avai l ab l e:
• Manual mode MAN
Manual mode is the simplest operating mode.
There are no sewing programs and no inputs for individual
sewing steps.
Changes to the fullness, stitch length, thread tension, curve
support and also the activation of other functions are implemented immediately.
Thus all the major sewing parameters can be changed manually during the sewing process.
• Automatic mode AUTO
Automatic mode allows sewing programs to be executed.
The seams are divided into individual sections within the se-
wing programs. Each step is assigned its own individual sewing parameters such as fullness etc.
• Programming mode
In Programming mode, new seam programs can be created
(PROGRAMMING), existing seam programs can be edited,
deleted, copied and mirrored (EDIT) and also optimized
(Length Correction).
• Service mode SERVICE
Service mode contains functions for use during service work.
Service mode is password-protected, to avoid accidentally
changing the machine settings.
