18 – Preparations
Important! Make sure that the presser foot is raised
and the needle is in its highest position by turning
the handwheel toward you. This is very important
to help ensure that the machine is correctly thread-
ed. Not doing so can result in poor stitch quality
when you start to sew.
1. Place the thread on the spool pin and t the ap-
propriately sized spool cap.
2. Pull the thread into the thread guide (A) from
front to the back and thread guide (B) from back
to front.
3. Pull the thread between the tension discs (C).
4. Continue bringing the thread down through the
right threading slot, around the U-turn, then
back upwards through the left threading slot.
5. Bring the thread from the right into the take-up
lever (D).
6. And then bring the thread down in the left-hand
threading slot and to the needle thread guide (E).
7. Thread the needle from front to back.
