Instructions

Things You'll Need

• Full bobbin
• Sew E-Z machine

1. Push the bobbin-cover-plate release button on the back of the machine to pop up the edge of the bobbin cover.

2. Remove the bobbin cover located to the right of the needle/foot of the machine.

3. Place a new bobbin in the bobbin compartment. Make sure the thread of the bobbin is pulling counterclockwise.

4. Turn the hand wheel toward you to make the needle go down into the needle plate. This will bring the end of the bobbin thread up through the needle plate.

6. Replace the bobbin cover and snap into place.

Tips & Warnings

• Make sure to test your newly threaded machine on scrap material before you begin sewing your actual project.

• Be careful when you are turning the hand wheel that no part of your body or clothing is underneath the needle.
