Hold the needle threader with the semi-circular buttons towards you.
Step 1
Carefully take your needle and place the eye of the needle in the tube that fits best,
with the pointed end upwards. Take care of the sharp point of the needle which will be
sticking out of the tube.
Step 2
Take your thread and lay it in the recessed slit nearest to the needle tube holding your
needle, ensuring that the short end is nearest to you.
Step 3
Slide the semi-circular button nearest the tube where you have placed your needle
towards the outer edge of the unit. This in turn pushes an internal metal probe through
the inside of the tube with the thread that was lying in the recessed slit through the
needle sitting in the tube.
Step 4
Release the circular button allowing the spring to return it to its central position. This
now leaves a small loop of thread sticking out from the outside of the needle tube. (The
thread can be felt on the outer edge of the tube towards the top.)
Take hold of the loop and gently pull through the thread until the short end of the
thread has pulled through fully.
Then gently remove the threaded needle ensuring when the “eye” is visible, you hold it
there to prevent the needle unthreading.
