Threading the Machine
Make sure that the presser foot is raised and the needle is in
its highest position.
1. Place a felt pad and the thread spool on the spool pin
and fit a spool cap of the right size and direction.
Note: Hold thread with both hands to prevent it from slacking
while threading. This ensures that the thread will be positioned
properly in the threading path.
2. Pull the thread under the thread guide (A) from the right
to the left.
3. Pull the thread from the right to left along the slot.
4. Pull the thread between the tension discs (B).
5. Thread down through the right-hand threading slot and
then upwards through the left-hand threading slot.
6. Bring the thread from the right into the take-up lever (C)
and down in the left-hand threading slot into the needle
thread guide (D).
7. Thread the needle.
Needle Threader
The needle threader allows you to thread the needle
automatically. The needle must be in its highest position to
use the built-in needle threader. Press the needle up/ down
button to make sure the needle is fully raised.
We also recommend lowering the presser foot.
1. Use the handle (A) to pull the needle threader all the way
down. Metal flanges encase the needle and a small hook
will pass through the needle eye.
2. Place the thread from the back over the thread guide (B)
and under the small hook (C).
3. 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.
4. Raise the presser foot and place the thread under it.
Note: The needle threader is designed to be used for size 70-120
needles. You cannot use the needle threader for size 60 needles or
smaller, wing needles or twin needles.
There are also some optional accessories that require manual threading
of the needle.
When threading the needle manually, make sure that the needle is
threaded from front to back.
