Threading the Lower Looper (Yellow)
When threading the lower looper, follow the thread path marked
with a yellow dot.
• Pass the thread from back to front through the thread guide on
the thread stand (1). Use the tweezers to make the threading
easier.
• Pull the thread from right to left under the upper thread guide at
the back on the top cover (2).
• While holding the thread with both hands, pass it between the
tension discs and pull it down to make certain it is properly
placed between the tension discs (3).
• Turn the hand wheel toward you until the lower looper is at the
far right.
• Thread the looper area of the machine following the yellow
color coded thread guides (4-7). Use the tweezers to make the
threading easier.
• After thread guide 7, pass the thread from front to back
through the hole in the lower looper (8).
• Pull about 10cm (4") of thread through the looper and place it
over the upper looper and to the back of the stitch plate.
• Hold the thread end with your left hand. Use the tweezers to
place the thread behind the fingers of the lower looper
threader (9).
• Pull the lever on the lower looper threader (10) gently upwards
as far as it will go. Release the lever and the lower looper
becomes fully threaded (11).
Note: When both loopers are threaded, the threads should run as
illustrated to the right (12).
