1. RAISE THE PRESSER FOOT LIFTER. It is very important
to raise the presser foot lifter before you proceed to thread
the machine.
2. Raise the needle in highest position by turning the
handwheel toward you.
(Keep this position for threading the eye of the needle.)
NOTE:
It is very important to raise the presser foot lifter before you
thread the machine. Not doing so will likely result in poor
stitch quality, or excessive thread loops on the underside of
the fabric. Always raise the presser foot lifter before you begin
threading the machine.
