Put the bobbin in so the thread comes out
in the direction shown by the arrow.
CAUTION
Make sure you set the bobbin so the
thread unrolls in the right direction. If
the thread unrolls in the wrong
direction, it may cause the thread
tension to be incorrect or break the
needle.
Hold the end of the thread, push the
bobbin down with your finger, and then
pass the thread through the slit, as shown.
• If the thread is not correctly inserted through
the tension-adjusting spring of the bobbin
case, it may cause incorrect thread tension.
