TO WIND THE BOBBIN

BEFORE you begin to spool throw the fly-wheel out of gear by pushing the connector (47) away from you as far as it will go.

Then pass the cotton into the right hand slot (b) of the thread guide and between the discs into the left hand slot (a) down towards and under the steel bar (c) to the bobbin; thread up the bobbin and put it so threaded in position precisely as described in this book for the other winder.

To put the winder in gear press the shoulder bar (h) against the arm of the machine when the little cog wheel attached to the spooler on the right will grip the cogs of the fly-wheel. To disconnect the spooler simply press on the flat button (e).

The screw (f) serves to regulate the position of the winder cog in connection with the fly-wheel cog; if they do not meet sufficiently near to each other turn the screw (f) to the left, if they are too close turn the screw (f) to the right. The screw (g) simply serves to steady the regulation arrived at by the screw (f) and should always be screwed firmly against the rim of the bed plate.
