1 Thread cutter
Note
• 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 8 cm (approx. 3 inches) of thread after
passing it through the thread guide disks (marked
"7").
1 About 8 cm (approx. 3 inches) or more
m
Press (Automatic threading button) to have the
machine automatically thread the needle.
 The thread passes through the eye of the needle.
Memo
• When (Automatic threading button) is
pressed, the presser foot will be automatically
lowered. After threading is finished, the presser
foot moves back to the position before
(Automatic threading button) was pressed.
n
Carefully pull the end of the thread that was passed
through the eye of the needle.
* If a loop was formed in the thread passed through
the eye of the needle, carefully pull on the loop of
thread through to the back of the needle.
o
Raise the presser foot lever and pull out about 10 cm
(approx. 4 inches) of the thread, and then pass it under
the presser foot toward the rear of the machine.

Memo
• If the needle could not be threaded or the thread
was not passed through the needle bar thread
guides, perform the procedure again starting from
c
step .
Note
• Some needles and threads cannot be threaded
with the needle threader. In this case, instead of
using the needle threader after passing the thread
through the needle bar thread guide (marked "6"),
manually pass the thread through the eye of the
needle from the front.
 Using the Vertical Spool Pin
Use the vertical spool pin when using an irregularly
shaped thread spool, and when embroidering with
metallic thread.

Memo
• When setting the thread spool, set it so that the
thread winds off from the front of the spool.

comes off the spool pin.
