PICKING UP BOBBIN THREAD
1. Raise the presser foot lifter.
2. Holding needle thread loosely with your left hand, turn hand
wheel toward you with your right hand first lowering the needle
and continuing until the needle comes to its highest position.
3. Lightly pull up the top thread, and pick up bobbin thread,
which will appear through the needle plate slot.
4. Pull both top and bobbin threads together toward the back of
the machine under the presser foot, leaving about 6” (15 cm)
clear.
NOTE: A quick way to pick up the bobbin thread is, with straight
stitch selected, touch and release the reverse switch.
Your machine will perform one down-up cycle and stop with
the needle up. Always stopping with the needle “fully up” is
one of the features of your computer sewing machine.
