Getting ready to sew

Needle threader

The needle must be in the up position to use the built-in needle 
threader. We also recommend lowering the presser foot.

1.  Use the handle to pull the needle threader all the way down, 

catching the thread under the guide (A).

2.  Push back to bring the needle threader forward until the metal 

fl

 anges cover the needle. A small hook will pass through the 

needle eye (B).

3.  Place the thread under the 

fl

 anges in front of  the needle, so 

the thread catches into the small hook (C).

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 the thread under the presser foot.

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, the wing needle, twin needle, 
triple needle or when the Sensor Buttonhole Foot is on. 
There are also some other 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. The white presser 
foot ankle makes it easy to see the eye of  the needle. The 
bobbin case cover can be used as a magnifying glass.

Cutting the thread

Once you have 

fi

 nished sewing, you can cut the threads by raising 

the presser foot and draw the threads to the left side of  the 
machine through the thread cutter.
