Reassemble Covers – Threading:
Install the side cover and arm top cover, thread the machine up and see how you've done
Tips on threading:
1.
Turn the tension dial to 5, ensure the presser foot is up
2.
Thread the machine as far as the take-up lever and stop
3.
Pull on the thread some, and then set the presser foot down, continuing to pull on the
thread. If you feel a significant increase in tension, the machine should be ready to go
4.
If not, double check threading procedure, the T&S is an easy machine to thread
incorrectly. Most common is missing the tension discs, or not getting the thread all the
way between the discs. Tip: once you have looped the thread over, under and around
the tension unit, make a X at the bottom of the tension unit with the thread. This usually ensures that both the thread guide
paths are engaged on the tension unit. At the take up lever, hold the spool by hand, and pull the thread a little to ensure the
thread does engage the tension discs.
Good luck and happy sewing
