To Set the Needle
Turn the balance wheel over toward you until
the needle bar moves up to its highest point
in the sleeve (D, Fig. 5), loosen the thumb
screw (C, Fig. 5) in the needle clamp (B. Fig.
5) and put the needle up into the clamp as far
as it will go, with its flat side toward the right,
then tighten the thumb screw.
To Thread the Needle
SEE FIG. 11
Turn the balance wheel over toward you until
the thread take-up lever (5) is raised to its
highest point. Place the spool of thread on
the spool pin at the top of the machine; lead
the thread into the thread guide (1) at the left,
down, under and from right to left between
the tension discs (2), into the small wire
spring (3), under the thread regulator (4) at
the left (not through the eye in the thread reg-
ulator), up and from right to left through the
hole in the end of the thread take-up lever
(5), down into the eyelet (6), into the lower
wire guide (7), then from left to right through
the eye of the needle (8).
Draw about two inches of thread through the
eye of the needle with which to commence
sewing.
