Selection of Needle Size and Threads Needle system: System 130 at-shank needle Needle Size Fabrics Thread

(12) Medium weight fabrics: Cotton, satin, workwear, canvas, double-faced fabrics, lightweight wool Most threads are of medium size and suitable for these fabrics and needle sizes. For best results: use polyester threads for syn- thetics and cotton or naturally woven fabrics. Always use the same thread at the top and bottom.

(14) Medium weight fabrics: Wool, heavier knitwear, terry cloth, denim fabrics

(16) Heavy fabrics: Wool, tent fabrics and quilted fabrics, denim, uphol- stery fabrics (light to medium)

(18) Heavy fabrics: Wool, coat fabrics, upholstery fabrics, some leather and vinyl (with leather needles) Durable thread Operation Inserting the Needle

WARNING: Risk of Injury!

Before inserting or replacing the needle, unplug the power supply unit from the sewing machine. Change the needle regularly, especially if it is bent or the tip is damaged. A bent needle causes skipped stitches. Defective needle tips damage the fabric. Insert the needle as follows:

1. The needle guide must be com-

pletely raised. Turn the handwheel (6) in the direction of the arrow.

2. Loosen the needle clamp screw

(21) and remove the old needle.

3. Insert the new needle as far as it

will go. The at side of the needle must face backwards.

4. Tighten the needle clamp screw again.

Attaching and Removing the Presser Foot There are different types of presser feet. You can buy them in shops. Make sure you get the right size. Not all presser feet t every sewing machine. To change or remove the presser foot, refer to the following description with the illustrations 1 – 3.

Pull the presser foot lever (17) up. Loosen the presser foot xing screw (a). Place the presser foot holder (b) on the presser foot bar (c) and tighten the screw (a).

Place the presser foot (d) on the needle plate. Lower the presser foot lever (17) until the notch (e) is exactly over the presser foot pin (f). Press the lever (g) until the pin (f) engages in the notch (e).

To remove the presser foot (20), press lever (g). The presser foot falls off. Threading the Upper-thread For threading the upper-thread, refer to the illustrations below. Also refer to the illustrated instructions on the appliance. When threading, make sure that the presser foot (20) is raised and the thread lever (1) is in the uppermost position!

6. Continue to guide the thread down

and pass it through the hole on the needle clamp.

7. Finally, pull the thread through

the needle hole. Let the thread run to the back under the presser foot (20). Make sure you pull the thread about 10 cm behind the presser foot. Adjusting the Upper-thread Tension The setting is made by turning the adjusting wheel (2). The basic setting is between 4 and 5. Depending on the fabric and yarn thickness, turn the adjusting wheel so that the knotting of the upper and lower threads is visible as a dot on the top of the fabric. If loops form, the thread tension is too loose. Winding the Under-thread Bobbin CAUTION: Remove the upper thread completely from the sewing machine. Otherwise it will wrap around internal compo- nents and the sewing machine will block.

1. Place a thread spool on the thread spool holder (15).

3. Guide the thread through the thread guide (16) to the

4. Wind the thread clockwise a few times around the empty

5. Push the bobbin against the bobbin

winder stop (13) (see illustration).

stops automatically. If you want to stop winding prematurely, release the foot pedal.

8. Cut the thread and remove the bobbin.

Inserting the Under-thread Bobbin

1. The needle must be fully raised when inserting or remov-

ing the under-thread bobbin (27). Turn the handwheel (6) in the direction of the arrow.

2. Pull the bobbin cover (10) off to the front.

3. Place the bobbin in the hook so that

it turns anticlockwise (see illustra- tion). Let the thread hang out of the bobbin by about 10 cm.

4. Push the bobbin cover back in.

Bringing up the Under-thread

1. Raise the presser foot (20).

2. Hold the upper-thread with your left hand.

3. At the same time, with your right hand, turn the

handwheel (6) in the direction of the arrow until the nee- dle is raised (one complete turn of the handwheel).

4. Pull the lower and upper-threads 10 cm back under the

presser foot. You can use a scissor or the thread cutter (12) for this. Select Stitch Pattern There are 12 stitch pattern types to choose from. Select a stitch pattern using the table below.
