thread tail of about 5 cm (2 inch).
If your sewing machine is equipped with a
needle threader, use the needle threader to
thread the needle (see next section).

Note
If the thread take-up lever is lowered, the
upper thread can not be wrapped around
the thread take-up lever. Make sure you
raise the presser foot lever and the thread
take-up lever before you feed the upper
thread.
If you incorrectly feed the thread you may
cause sewing problems.
