Threading The Machine; Needle Threader - Pfaff creative 1.5 Owner's Manual

Threading the Machine

Make sure that the presser foot is raised and the needle
is in its highest position.
1. Place a felt pad and the thread spool on the spool
pin and fit a spool cap of the right size and direction.
Note: Hold thread with both hands to prevent it from
slacking while threading. This ensures that the thread will
be positioned properly in the threading path.
2. Pull the thread under the thread guide (A) from the
right to the left.
3. Pull the thread from the right to left along the slot.
4. Pull the thread between the tension discs (B).
5. Thread down through the right-hand threading slot
and then upwards through the left-hand threading
slot.
6. Bring the thread from the right into the take-up lever
(C) and down in the left-hand threading slot into the
needle thread guide (D).
7. Thread the needle.

Needle Threader

The needle threader allows you to thread the needle
automatically. The needle must be in its highest position
to use the built-in needle threader. Press the needle up/
down button to make sure the needle is fully raised.
We also recommend lowering the presser foot.
1. Use the handle (A) to pull the needle threader all the
way down. Metal flanges encase the needle and a
small hook will pass through the needle eye.
2. Place the thread from the back over the thread guide
(B) and under the small hook (C).
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.
4. Raise the presser foot and place the thread under it.
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, wing needles or twin needles.
There are also some optional accessories that require manual
threading of the needle.
When threading the needle manually, make sure that the
needle is threaded from front to back.
