Upper Threading
(SEE FIG. 14)
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- and pass the thread to
the left through the thread guide (1), down, under
and from right to left between the tension discs (2).
With the right hand hold the spool to prevent it
from turning, and with the left hand draw the thread
up into the take-up spring (4) until the thread
enters the retaining fork (3), then pass the thread
from right to left through the hole in the thread
take-up lever (5), down through the guide (6) on
the face plate, into the wire guide (7) on the needle
bar bushing, into the guide (8) on the needle clamp
and from right to left through the eye (9) of
the needle.
Draw about two inches of thread through the eye
of the needle with which to commence sewing.
