Threading; Threading The Upper Thread - Husqvarna VIKING Designer Epic 3 User Manual

Threading

Make sure that the presser foot and needle are in the up
position.
Note: When using thread cones, place a cone holder on the spool pin
before placing the thread cone. This prevents the thread cone from
wobbling.
Tip: When removing the thread cone from the spool pin, the cone holder
might become stuck inside the thread cone. Push it out gently from the
top.

Threading the Upper Thread

For most regular thread qualities and spool sizes, threading
the upper thread from the main (left) spool pin in the vertical
position is recommended for optimal sewing results.
If you experience problems with the thread or sewing result,
there are alternative ways to position the thread spool. See
Threading Tips and Hints, page 39.
1. Hold the telescopic thread guide by the markings and pull
it straight up until it clicks into place.
2. Raise both spool pins to vertical position. Place the
thread spool on the main spool pin (left).
Using both hands, place the thread behind the left clip on
the telescopic thread guide (A). The thread should run
from right to left.
3. Hold the thread with two hands as illustrated. Floss the
thread under the thread guide (B) from front to back.
Pull thread back into and through threading slot (C).
Note: Continue to hold the thread lightly next to the thread guide
(B) throughout the threading process. This will create a bit of
tension on the thread and ensure that the thread is properly seated
in the threading path.
