Pull the end of the thread, which has been a passed through the needle bar thread guide, to the left, then pass the thread through the notch of the thread guide 1, and then firmly pull the thread from the front and insert it into the slit of the thread guide disk marked "7" all the way 2. Make sure that the thread passes the notch of the thread guide. Note z If the thread is pulled through and cannot be cut correctly, lower the presser foot so that the thread is held in place before cutting the thread. If this operation is performed, skip step c. z When using thread that quickly winds off the spool, such as metallic thread, it may be difficult to thread the needle if the thread is cut. Therefore, instead of using the thread cutter, pull out about 80 mm (approx. 3 inches) of thread after passing it through the thread guide disks (marked "7"). a 80 mm (3 inches) or more Lower the presser foot lever to lower the c presser foot. 21 2 1 a Notch of the thread guide b Thread guide disk Cut the thread with the thread cutter on the b left side of the machine. 1 a Presser foot lever Lower the needle threader lever on the left d side of the machine until it clicks, and then slowly return the lever to its original position. a Thread cutter 34 a Needle threader lever X The thread is passed through the eye of the needle.
