Threading the upper thread
This is a simple operation but it is important to carry
out correctly as by not doing so several sewing
problems could result.
1. Start by raising the needle to its highest point,
and continue turning the handwheel
counterclockwise until the needle just slightly
begins to descend. Raise the presser foot to
release the tension discs.
2. Lift up the spool pin. Place the spool of thread on
the holder with the thread coming off the spool as
shown. For small thread spools, place small side
of spool holder next to spool.
3. Draw thread from spool through the upper
thread guide.
4. Pulling thread through pre-tension spring as
illustrated.
5. Thread tension module by leading thread down
right channel and up left channel.
During this process it is helpful to hold the
thread between the spool and thread guide.
6. At the top of this movement pass thread from
right to left through the slotted eye of the take-up
lever and then downwards again.
7. Now pass thread behind the thin wire needle
clamp guide and then down to the needle which
should be threaded from front to back.
8. Pull about 6-8 inches of thread to the rear
beyond the needle eye. Trim thread to length
with built-in thread cutter.
Note:
Note:
For safety, it is strongly suggested you
turn off the power before threading.
If your sewing machine is equipped with the factory
installed optional automatic needle threader,
instructions for use can be found on next page.
