Threading the needle

This section describes how to thread the needle.
Memo
The needle threader can be used with
sewing machine needles 75/11 through
100/16.
The needle threader cannot be used with the
wing needle.
If the needle threader cannot be used, refer
to "Threading the needle manually (without
using the needle threader)" (page 32).
a Pull the end of the thread, which has been
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.

Note
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
c
step .
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").
