How to put a spool backinto machine

Berninas can use double or triple needles, just be sure the needle is set in the center position and the stitch width is set to zero. If your machine does not have dual spool pins, you can put one spool in a drinking glass on the table behind the sewing machine. You can also probably fashion a spool holder out of a small dowel on a base or even find a standalone spool holder. Instead of using two thread spools, some people will use a thread spool and load thread on a bobbin and put both on the spool pin.

Be sure to thread each separately so the two threads do not become twisted. Your machine may also have dual tension disks, so each thread should be separated when going through the tension unit.

It appears to be just "hooked" on according to the photo, and you can get the replacement part for $4.00 using this link: http://www.sewingpartsonline.com/spool-pin-singer-3709-sewing-machine.aspx.

However, before you go to all that trouble, you can also just use the auxiliary spool pin used for twin needle sewing which came with your machine but can be purchased from the same site for about the same price.

I don't use either -- I just put the spool in a cup behind the machine and thread from there. See? One way or another, you're back in business!

Use your hand wheel and turn it. Monitor under the throat plate. The part you see moving will eventually show an opening. Stop there and install your bobbin casing. If it has a little metal piece across you will have to lift it slightly. After it is snug you can install the bobbin.

I'm not sure what you're asking. If you're asking how you can replace the spool pin that is on the machine, you don't need to. Just put your spool in the back of the machine, away from the sewing area on the right, and put it in a coffee cup or Mason jar, and feed the thread from there. Many owners of embroidery machines--which are just sewing machines with an embroidery unit attached--routinely do that--it tends to feed more evenly that way.

bAttach the extra spool pin.

Put the extra spool pin in the hole on the top of

the machine. Put the second spool of thread

onto the extra spool pin.

See page 25 in owners manual.

Open Up The Door Below The sewing Foot. Lift Lever And Then Pull Out the Bobbing Case Replace Bobbing And Put Back Together

do you mean how to put bobbin in to the machine?

You may still be threading the machine wrong.

Do you have the manual to look at. If you still think that everything is threaded right. Try looking at the spool of thread, on every spool there is a small slice to hold the thread when not in use. Make sure when you put the thread on the spool holder, put the slice side on first so that it is torward the back, Also when you put the spool cover on make sure it is not to big or small for the spool.

After all this;
After threading the machine and ready, before you begin to sew, lift the foot up with the lever and pull the threads from under the needle they should pull freely, if either the top or bottom thread feel tight you can tell which thread is getting caught on something. Re-check the threads.

Also make sure that the thread is going through the tension disks correctly, they go between the dsks not behind, if this machine has the down and around the tension make sure it is done right.

Hope this helps

Hi!

There may be so many reasons due to which the needle does not pick up the bobbing thread like---

The upper thread could be tangled. Remove the thread commpletely from the machine. The correct size spool cap should be used for the size of the thread spool. Re-thread the machine. Remove the bobbin and make sure the bobbin is threaded properly in the shuttle race. Remove any loose threads or lint in the shuttle race. You could be holding the needle thread too tight. Hold the thread lightly to keep the end from going down into the shuttle. The needle could be thread incorrectly. Thread the needle eye from the front to the back. The needle could be bent or improperly inserted. Install a new needle with the flat side of the needle facing the back.

I had the same problem with my singer 20u professional. I tried to find the answer here but no help but I made a call & she said the bobbing might be too big fer the bobbing holder. the bobbing holder is the round metle thing that fits in ure machine. u have to make sure the bobbing ( the thang that holds the thread is the exact same size as the bobbing holder. Hope this helps.
