Preparations PFA Needle threader The needle threader allows you to thread the needle automatically. The needle must be in the up position to use the built-in needle threader. We also recommend lowering the presser foot. 1. Use the handle to pull the needle threader all the way down. The threader hook (G) swivels through the needle eye. 2. Place the thread from the back over the hook (H) and under the thread hook (G). 3. Let the needle threader gently swing back. The hook pulls the thread through the needle eye and forms a loop behind the needle. Pull the thread loop out behind the needle. Note: The needle threader is designed to be used for size 70-120 needles. You cannot use the needle threader for size 60 needles or smaller, a wing needle, twin needle or triple needle. There are also some optional accessories that require manual threading of the needle. Threading for twin needle Replace the sewing needle with a twin needle. Make sure that the presser foot is raised and the needle is in the up position. 1. Place the thread on the spool pin and Àt a spool cap of the right size. Raise the auxiliary spool pin. Slide on a large spool cap and a felt pad. Place the second thread on the spool pin. 2. Pull the threads into the thread guide (A) from the front to the back. Pull both threads from the right underneath the bobbin winder thread guide (B) on the pre-tension disc (C). 3. Thread down through the right-hand threading slot and then upwards through the left-hand threading slot. Make sure that you pass one thread to the left and one thread to the right sides of the tension disk (D). 4. Bring the threads from the right into the take-up lever (E) and down in the left-hand threading slot. Make sure that one thread is inside the needle thread guide (F) and the other one outside. Make sure that the threads do not become twisted together. 5. Thread the needles. 2:4 H G C B A E D F B C
