3.
Continue threading in the direction indicated
by the arrows. Bring the thread from the right
when threading into the slot on the take-up
lever.
4.
Take the thread down to the last guide just
above the needle.
Vertical spool pin
1.
Pull the spool pin out. Place the spool on the
spool pin (follow the instructions on previous
page).
2.
Thread the machine according to the instruc-
tions with one exception. Instead of bringing
the thread into the pre-tension guide, bring it
directly under the thread guide (b).
Needle threader
The needle must be in the up position to use
the needle threader. We also recommend that
you lower the presser foot.
1.
Pull the needle threader all the way down,
behind the needle.
2.
Bring it forward until the metal fl anges cover
the needle. A small hook will pass through
the eye.
3.
Place the thread around guide (a) and under
the fl anges in front of the needle, so it catch-
es into the small hook.
4.
Let the needle threader gently swing back,
the hook pulls the thread through the needle
eye and forms a loop behind the needle. Pull
the thread loop out behind the needle.
5.
Place thread under the presser foot and cut
the thread.
Note:
You can not use the Needle threader for the
wing needle, twin needle, triple needle, a needle
smaller than size 70 or when the Buttonhole Sen-
sor Foot is on. The needle is threaded from front to
back. The white on the pres ser foot ankle makes it
easy to see the eye of the needle.
Thread warning
If the upper thread breaks or bobbin thread runs
out, the machine stops. Upper thread or bobbin
sym bol appears on a Pop-up Menu on the Color
Touch Screen. If upper thread breaks: Re-thread
the machine and touch OK on the Pop-Up Menu.
The Pop-up disappears. If bob bin thread runs
out: Rem ove your work and the bobbin. Fill the
bobbin. Replace the bob bin and sew.
