cap of the right size.
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 into the thread guide by pulling
it from the front to the back (A). Make sure the
thread clicks into place. Then pull the thread
underneath the bobbin winder thread guide (B)
on the pre-tension disc (C).
3. Thread down through the right-hand threading
slot and then upwards through the left-hand
threading slot.
4. Bring the thread from the right into the take-up
lever (D) and down in the left-hand threading
slot to the needle thread guide (E).
5. Thread the needle.
Needle threader
The needle threader allows you to thread the
needle automatically. The needle must be in the up
position to use the built-in needle threader.
1. Lower the presser foot.
2. Use the handle to pull the needle threader all
the way down. The threader hook (G) swivels
through the needle eye.
3. Place the thread from the back over the hook (F)
and under the thread hook (G).
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.
Note: The needle threader is designed to be used for size
70-120 needles. You cannot use the needle threader for
size 60 needle or smaller, the wing needle, twin needle or
triple needle. There are also some optional accessories that
require manual threading of the needle.
The bobbin cover can be used as a magnifying glass.
