3.
When winding the bobbin thread in the state that sewing is not performed, remove the needle
thread from the thread path of thread take-up and remove the bobbin from the hook.
There is the possibility that the thread pulled out from the thread stand is loosened due to
the inuence (direction) of the wind and may be entangled in the handwheel. Be careful of
the direction of the wind.

1) Install the bobbin in the bobbin case so that the thread wound direction is clockwise.
2) Pa ss the t hread throug h thr ead slit A,
pull the thread in direction B. By so doing, the
thread will pass under the tension spring and come out from notch B.
3) Check that the bobbin rotates in the direction of the arrow when thread C is pulled.

Inserting the CompactFlash (TM)
1) Turn the label side of the CompactFlash(TM)
to this side (place the notch of the edge to the
rear.) and insert the part that has a small hole
into the panel.
2) After completion of setting of the media, close
the cover. By closing the cover, it is possible
to access. If the media and the cover come in
contact with each other and the cover is not
closed, check the following matters.
• Check that the media is securely pressed
until it goes no further.
Media
1. When the inserting direction is wrong, panel or media may be damaged.
2. Do not insert any item other than the CompactFlash (TM).
3. The media slot in the IP-420 accommodates to the CompactFlash (TM) of 2 GB or less.
4.
The media slot in the IP-420 supports the FAT16 which is the format of the Compact-
Flash (TM). FAT32 is not supported.
5. Be sure to use the CompactFlash (TM) which is formatted with IP-420. For the formatting procedure of the CompactFlash (TM), see "19. Performing formatting of the media", p.156.

CAUTION :
Cautions when using the media
• Do not wet or touch it with wet hands. Fire or electric shock will be caused.
• Do not bend, or apply strong force or shock to it.
• Never perform disassembling or remodeling of it.
• Do not put the metal to the contact part of it. Data may be disappeared.
• Avoid storing or using it in the places below.

16
Precautions to be taken when handling USB devices
1
• Do not leave the USB device or USB cable connected to the USB port while the sewing machine is in opera-
tion.
The machine vibration can damage the port section resulting in loss of data stored on the USB device or
breakage of the USB device or sewing machine.
• Do not insert/remove a USB device during reading/writing a program or sewing data.
It may cause data breakage or malfunction.
• When the storage space of a USB device is partitioned, only one partition is accessible.
• Some type of the USB device may not be properly recognized by this sewing machine.
• JUKI does not compensate for loss of data stored on the USB device caused by using it with this sewing ma-
chine.
• When the panel displays the communication screen or pattern data list, the USB drive is not recognized even
if you insert a medium into the slot.
• For USB devices and media such as CF cards, only one device/medium should be basically connected/in-
serted to/into the sewing machine. When two or more devices/media are connected/inserted, the machine will
only recognize one of them. Refer to the USB specications.
• Insert the USB connector into the USB terminal on the IP panel until it will go no further.
Do not turn the power OFF while the data on the USB ash drive is being accessed.
