Overview
As you learn to thread your machine, we
recommend using the thread colors that are
shown on the tension dials. This will help you
understand the function of each thread.
The recommended tensions are based on
sewer using polyester or a polyester/cotton
blend of thread for all threading positions.
Choose a brand of thread that is even and
consistent with no thick and thin areas.
NOTE: The speed of the machine and the
stitch formation stretches the thread as it
passes through the tension discs and thread
guides. Therefore, it is important that the
thread is polyester or a polyester/cotton blend.
A 100% cotton thread is too weak and will
result in threads breaking.
IMPORTANT: Study the threading guides
carefully and use each guide indicated. The
machine must be threaded in the correct
sequence (upper looper, lower looper,
needles).
Hand turn the flywheel towards you until the
needles are at their highest position.
Open the front cover.
Open the side cover by pushing lever up.
