The machine is pre-threaded to make threading
easier.
Tie the end of a new thread to one of the pre-set
threads, and pull it to draw the new thread through
the machine, following the steps below.
*
Turn off the power switch before threading the
machine.
1. Pull the threads from the spools and draw them
through the thread guides, then tie the thread
ends together.
2. Raise the presser foot, draw the threads until the
knots are coming out from under the back of the
presser foot.
3. However, stop drawing the needle thread when
the knot reach just before the needle eye.
Cut the knot and thread the needle eye.
4. Before starting sewing, clear the needle thread
from under the presser foot to make sure it is
not caught below the needle plate.
(Draw the needle thread in the direction A.)
Then pull out the thread to the back
approximately 10 cm (4˝) away from the presser
foot. Lower the presser foot, and you are now
ready to sew.
