Like all sewing machines that produce what it’s called a “lockstitch” your stylist sewing machine sews with two threads. The upper thread comes from the school and is threaded through the eye of the needle. The lower thread comes from the bobbin, the small plastic spool that you used to wind the machine. It is best to wind the bobbin before threading the needle.
The bobbin thread
Winding the bobbin
1. Raise the presser foot
2. Turn hand wheel toward you until the needle is in its highest position.
3. Open slide plate. Draw plate towards you, opening it just enough to make bobbin accessible (opening it all the way raises the pin that holds the throat plate in place).
4. Lift out bobbin and close slide plate to make sure throat plate is secure while winding.
5. Loosen the needle stop-motion screw with your right hand while holding the hand wheel with the left.
6. Place bobbin on spindle.
7. Play spool of thread on spool pin over the spool pin felt and lead thread through the top cover and tension-assembly thread guides and around bobbin winder tension disc.
8. Pass thread from the inside through hole in bobbin.
9. Move bobbin Winder switch to on position, hold thread and start the Machine.
10. Cut off thread end after a few coils and have been wound on the bobbin.
11. When required amount of thread has been wound (winding will stop when bobbin it is full), move bobbin winder switch to off position, and cut thread.
12. Tighten stop motion screw by turning it away from you with right hand, while holding the hand wheel with your left hand.
