Threading the upper thread
Threading the upper thread is a straightforward process, but it must be done correctly to
achieve correct sewing results. Follow the steps below and refer to the numbered upper
threading-related diagrams, which are indicated on your machine.
1.
Set the on/off switch to "OFF" and unplug the machine from the mains socket.
2.
Raise the needle to the highest position by turning the handwheel towards you
(anticlockwise) and keep turning it until the needle starts to descend.
3.
Raise the presser foot lifter to release the tension on the machine.
Important: If the presser foot lifter is not raised before being thread, it will cause
the thread to jam under the fabric when you start to sew.
4.
Raise the spool pin and insert the spool base, spool of thread and spool cap. The thread
should be facing backwards. Gently pull the thread from the left to make sure that the
spool of thread turns anticlockwise as shown.
If the spool of thread is small enough, the spool pin can be lowered to a horizontal position.
