3. WINDING THE BOBBIN
1. To wind the bobbin, the balance wheel must be disconnected from the stitching mechanism. Hold the balance wheel with your left hand and turn the stop motion knob (Fig, 1) towards you with your right hand. This will permit the balance wheel to turn freely while the needle bar remains motionless. The balance wheel is now disconnected for the bobbin winding operation.
2. Place a spool of thread on the spool pin. Draw thread from the spool through tension bracket from back to front (Fig. 2).
3. Now wind the end of the thread around empty bobbin seven or eight times and place the threaded bobbin on the spindle of the bobbin winder.
4. And push the bobbin winder from left to right.
5. Now manipulate your foot control in the same manner as in sewing and when the bobbin is completely full it will release automatically and stop turning. Detach bobbin from spindle. Hold balance wheel firmly with left hand and with the right hand turn stop motion knob, away from you until if cannot be moved any further and the needle bar moves with the turning of the balance wheel.

4. THREADING THE BOBBIN CASE
Before threading the bobbin case, study Fig. 3, 4 and 5 to get a general idea as to how it is done.
1. Hold the bobbin case with your left hand and put the bobbin into the bobbin case with your right hand, leaving about two inches of the thread end unwound (Fig. 3). As the bobbin is being inserted in the bobbin case, the thread flow, you will note, is clockwise.
2. While holding the bobbin case as before, grasp the thread and with your right hand and guide it into the cross slot (Fig. 4).
3. Then pull it through under the tension spring of the bobbin case until it enters the delivery eye (Fig. 5).
5. INSERTING AND REMOVING THE BOBBIN CASE
1. Raise the presser bar by lifting the presser bar lifter.
2. Raise the needle bar to its highest position by turning the balance wheel towards you.
3. Pull out slide plate IFig. 6).
4. After threading the bobbin case, hold its latch (Fig. 7) between the thumb and forefinger of the left hand, with its position finger opposite the notch at the top of the shuttle race and replace it on the centre stud of the shuttle
(Fig 7).
5. Then release the latch and press the bobbin case back until the latch catches the groove near the end of the stud.
6. Allow the end of the thread to hang free.
7. Push back slide plate. To remove the bobbin case do all the above in reverse order.

6. THREADING THE MACHINE
Place a spool of thread on spool pin and raise the take-up lever to its highest point Refer to(Fig. 8).
Pull thread through slot of upper thread guide (1) down through tension discusi2)up into thread check spring (3) and
(4) and on up into the eye of the take-up lever (5) from right
to left.
Return thread through middle thread guide ¡6) down through lower guide (7j and into needle bar thread guide (8).
Thread needle from left to right, pulling about four inches
of thread through needle.
7. SETTING THE NEEDLE
1. Turn the balance wheel towards you, raising needle bar to its highest position, and loosen the needle clamp screw.
2. Hold the needle in the left hand with the point down and insert the needle up into the needle clamp as far as it will go with its flat surface to the right then retight
en the clamp screw (Fig. 9).
