Place the bobbin onto the bobbin winder spindle
sliding it on the spindle to its stop. Pass the thread
through the thread guide "K", Fig. 9, in the tension

to
the
bobbin. Thread a few windings on the bobbin. Press
down lever "E" to push the bobbin winder pulley
against the
drive
belt and start the
machine.
When
enough thread has been wound on the bobbin, the
winder will stop automatically.
