The hook on the automatic needle-
threading mechanism passes through the
eye of the needle.
CAUTION
Note
●
To avoid damage, the automatic needle-
threading mechanism may return to the
back position when you turn the
handwheel.
●
The automatic needle-threading
mechanism can thread one needle at the
sewing position. When this mechanism is
used, be sure that the needle bar that you
want to thread is positioned as the sewing
position, otherwise the automatic needle-
threading mechanism cannot be used at
the particular needle. If the needle bar is
not at the sewing position, move it there.
(Refer to page 61.)
2
Pull out about 150 mm (6 inches) of thread.
Allow thread to relax and eliminate any
stress on the thread. Then, as shown in the
illustration, pass the thread under the fork of
the automatic needle-threading mechanism
from the right, and then catch the thread
with the hook that passes through the eye of
the needle.
1 Hook
2 Fork
Note
●
When catching the thread with the hook,
be careful that the thread does not become
loose.
●
If the needle is not fully inserted, the
hook of the automatic needle-threading
mechanism will not pass through the
eye of the needle during automatic
needle threading, and the hook may
bend or the needle cannot be threaded.
●
If the hook of the automatic needle-
threading mechanism is bent or
damaged, contact your authorized
retailer.
●
While the hook of the automatic
needle-threading mechanism is passed
through the eye of the needle, do not
rotate the handwheel, otherwise the
automatic needle-threading mechanism
may be damaged.
