Note
• When using thread that quickly winds off the
spool, such as metallic thread, it may be
difficult to thread the needle if the thread is
cut.
Therefore, instead of using the thread cutter,
pull out about 80 mm (approx. 3 inches) of
thread after passing it through the thread
guide disks (marked “7”).

• When the “Automatic Threading” button is
pressed, the embroidery foot will be
automatically lowered. After threading is
finished, the embroidery foot moves back to
the position before the “Automatic Threading”
button was pressed.

• If the needle could not be threaded or the
thread was not passed through the needle bar
thread guide, perform the procedure again
starting from step

Note
• Some needles cannot be threaded with the
needle threader. In this case, instead of using
the needle threader after passing the thread
through the needle bar thread guide (marked
“6”), manually pass the thread through the eye
of the needle from the front.
