INSTALLATION

Place the embroidery machine on a rugged base so that the table will be level.

At this time, make sure to place attached vibration-preventive rubbers (H) under the adjuster foot (1). The rubbers will effectively prevent the machine from moving on the table or vibrating.

SETTING THE UNDER THREAD

1.Orient the bobbin (1) with its thread facing in the direction, specified by the arrow symbol, and put it in the bobbin case (2).

2.Route the thread through the thread groove (3) in the bobbin case, under the thread tension spring (4) and the thread guard (5).

3.Raise the "lever" (6) on the bobbin case and then install it in the rotary hook.

NOTE: The standard under thread tension is 25 to 30 g (0.25 to 0.3 N) for the carbonized yarn #120.

The thread tension can be adjusted with the tension adjusting screw of the bobbin case. Turning the screw clockwise tightens the thread and turning it counterclockwise loosens the thread tension.

For adjustment, suspend three 25-cent coins from the bobbin case by taping them to the thread as shown in the illustration below. If thread is pulled out slightly when the bobbin case is gently shaken up and down, the thread tension is between 25 and 30 g (0.25 and 0.3 N).
