the rear of your machines table top. Normally located on the
right hand rear corner of the sewing machines table top.
2. Pull some thread off the spool and thread it though the eyelet
directly over the spool on the upper horizontal lever of the
thread stand.
3. Pass the thread directly through the first thread guide
#
(A)
Pull the thread over the top of the tension disks in a clockwise

tension disks of the upper auxiliary tension assembly
#
(B).
4. Then place the thread back through the thread guide
#

5. Pull enough thread down and pass it through the middle
thread wire guide
#
(C).
6. Wind the thread in a counter-clockwise direction around the
main thread tension roller
#
(D) two complete revolutions and
again back through the same thread guide
#

and pull the thread until the thread passes under the
bobbin thread tension adjusting spring and rests in the
groove as pictured.
