3. Pull the threads between the thread tension discs (C).
Make sure that you place one thread to the left and one
to the right side of the tension discs.
Thread down through the right threading slot and then
upwards through the left threading slot. Bring the
threads from the right into the take-up lever (D) until
they click into place (E), and down in the left threading
slot. One thread should be placed inside the needle
thread guide (F) and the other one outside. Make sure
the threads do not become twisted together.
4. Thread the twin needle manually.
Do not use the automatic needle threader for twin
needle!
Note: The weight and irregular surface of specialty threads such as
metallic increases the amount of friction on the thread. By reducing
the tension, the risk of needle breakage and thread breakage is
reduced.
