INSERTING THE NEEDLE
See Fig. 2. Raise the needle bar ® to its highest point, turning hand wheel toward you by hand. Then loosen the needle clamp screw ® and the needle can be inserted into clamp (3).
Fig. 2
Place needle (Fig.3, FLAT SIDE TO RIGHT) in the needle clamp
and push it upward as far as it will go into the needle clamp hole,
tightening the needle clamp screw securely with a screw driver.
After changing the needle, make one complete revolution of the
hand wheel by hand to be sure the needle is in the correct position.

WINDING THE BOBBIN

Disengage the hand wheel CCD, Fig. 4) from the stitching mechanism by turning the clutch (®, Fig. 4) toward you or counter clockwise. Place a spool of thread on one of the spool pins and lead thread around one set of arm thread guide ((D, Fig. 4). Run end of
thread through a hole in the bobbin edge and place bobbin on spindle of bobbin winder (©, Fig. 4) fitting the notch on bobbin
over small pin on spindle. Push bobbin winder lever (®, Fig. 4) against bobbin. Hold thread end loosely and start machine slowly.
Bobbin will stop winding when it is filled.
Turn clutch away To reengage stitching mechanism turn clutch
(CD,Fig 4) clockwise.

THREADING THE BOBBIN CASE

Step 1 (illustrated in Fig. 5) Hold bobbin case between thumb and forefinger of left hand, so that the slot in the edge of the bobbin case is on top. Take the bobbin between thumb and
forefinger of right hand so that the thread on top leads from left to right. Step 2. Insert bobbin into bobbin case, pull the thread into the slot of the bobbin case as shown in Fig. 6, and draw it under the Tension spring and into the fork-shaped opening of the spring as shown in Fig. 7.

PLACING BOBBIN CASE IN SHUTTLE

Open bobbin case cover plate left of the needle. (®, Fig. 1) See Fig. 8. Hold the bobbin case latch, (T), between the thumb and forefinger of the left hand with at least three inches of thread
Fig. 8
running from the top of the bobbin case to the right. Insert and center the bobbin case on the stud of the shuttle hook ®. Be sure the bobbin case finger @ is inside the shuttle race notch ®. Press the bobbin case ® into the shuttle as far as possible until latch catches on the center post of the shuttle. Then release the bobbin case latch ®. Press bobbin case again after latch has been released to make sure the bobbin case is locked securely in place.
Close the cover plate.

UPPER THREADING

Turn hand wheel toward you to raise the
take-up lever and needle to their highest position.

thread through top plate thread guided) and(D.
Down and between tension discs® from right
to left.
Up and over the tension guide® then down
under the tension spring®
Into take-up lever ® from right to left. Down through thread bar guide ® and into
face plate guide® and needle clamp guide®.
Thread needle from left to right pulling three
to four inches of thread through needle.
Hold the end of the upper thread loosey and turn hand wheel toward you until the needle goes all the way down and comes back up bringing with it the bottom or bobbin case thread.
I Place both threads
(upper and lower) under the slot of the Presser foot and place toward the back of the machine, leaving both threads three to four inches long.
ADJUSTING THE TENSIONS
A correct stitch can be obtained by varying the tension on the
No tension

Fig. 11
needle thread. To adjust the tension of the needle thread, Lower the pressure foot.
Adjust the tension regulator as the case demand, by refferring to illustration. (Fig.ll) The quality of sewing depends on the tension of thread. Therefore, it is necessary for the user to become fully familiar with the correct tensions through practice.
Before adjusting lower tension be sure that the machine is threaded properly. When necessary to change the bobbin tension, turn small screw (Fig. 12) on side of the bobbin case clockwise to tighten, counter-clockwise to loosen.
When the upper and lower tensions are properly balanced, a perfect stitch will be formed with both threads interlocking in
fabric (Fig. 13).
When the upper tension is too tight, the lower thread is pulled up over the upper thread which is lying flat on the fabric (Fig.
14).

When the upper tension is too loose, the upper thread forms loops over the lower thread lying flat under the fabric (Fig. 15).
