Threading the Machine
Threading the machine
* Raise the thread take-up lever to its highest position by
turning the handwheel counterclockwise.
* Raise the presser foot lifter.
* Place a spool on the spool pin, with thread coming off as
shown.
[] Draw the end of thread around the upper thread guide.
[] While holding the thread near the spool, draw the end of
the thread down around the check spring holder.
[] Firmly draw the thread up from right to left over the
take-up lever and down into the take-up lever eye.
[] Slide the thread behind the needle bar thread guide on
the left.
[] Thread the needle from front to back or use a needle
threader.
We recommend using the convenient needle threader
(#200262101), included with your machine.
Drawing up bobbin thread
[] Raise the presser foot. Hold the needle thread lightly
with your left hand and rotate the handwheet counter
clockwise, toward you, for one complete turn.
[] Bring the bobbin thread up by pulling the needle thread
up.
[] Pull both threads under and to the back of the presser
foot, leaving 4 to 6 inches (10 cm to 15 cm) of thread
clear.
