THREAD THE TOP THREAD
Raise the presser foot.
Note: Always raise the presser foot lifter before threading the top
thread. (If the presser foot lifter is not raised, correct thread tension
cannot be obtained.)
Turn the hand wheel toward you until the needle is in its
highest position and the thread take-up lever is visible.
Thread the machine in the following order as illustrated.
• Guide the thread through thread guide (1), then pull it
down along the groove.
• Continue threading in the direction of the arrow (pull
the thread around the inside of the tab (2)).
• Pass the thread through the thread take-up lever (3) from
the right to left.
• Insert the thread into the inside of the groove (4).
• Guide the thread into the thread guide (5).
• Use the needle threader (page 12) to thread the needle
eye (6).
