Raise the take-up lever (5) to the highest point by turning the balance wheel toward you.
Place a spool of thread on the spool pin.
Pass the thread through upper arm thread guide (1), downwards around tension discs (2) from
right to left, up over the tension thread guard (3) from behind, through the loop of the take-up spring (4),
up and through the hole in the take-up lever (5), down
through thread guides (6&7) and into the thread guide (8)

eye of the needle from left to right.
