d) Retrieving the lower thread
First raise the needle fully by turning the
handwheel.
With the left hand, firmly hold the end
of the upper thread that comes
through the eye of the needle.
• With the right hand, give the wheel
one complete turn anticlockwise.
The upper thread now pulls the lower
thread into a loop.
• As soon as the lower thread appears,
carefully pull the upper thread you
are holding in your left hand. In this
way, you can pull the lower thread
clear.
• Pull out the two threads by about
10 cm.
and lie them out as shown. The
sewing machine is now ready to use.
