Fig. 9 shows the path of thread from the overhead thread guide
through the tension nut, through the front guides and to the needle.

B. When using spool thread,
Tip:
where the end of the thread is wedged in before being cut off.
Put the spool on upside down, so the notched edge is on the
bottom and the thread can't catch on that notch as it unwinds
upwards to the thread guide.
C. For correct needle threading of the machine,
carefully follow the path of thread as shown in Fig.9 above
and Fig 11 on the next page.

A. When using sewing thread
from a cone, place it over
plastic base on thread stand
(Fig.9B above)
remove plastic cone base
before placing spool on thread
stand (Fig. 10).
Many spools of thread have a notch cut at the top edge
Threading the machine
Take the thread through the vertical guide pole and pull it to the rear of the thread tension
device.
Put the thread first thru the rear thread guide eye (1a);
Then, between the two tension discs (2); and then through the eye of the forward thread
guide (1b) as per Fig.9.
Bring the thread to the front of the machine and put it through the plastic grommet which is
the front thread guide (3).
Then below that there is a guide hole (4a) on the left of the needle clamp (4). From there the
thread continues down to the needle (5).
Important: At this point, make certain that needle is in extreme left-hand position (turn
the handwheel (7) so it is. The left edge of the Needle Carrier arm will be at its highest
point.)
Now put thread through needle eye from below as shown in Fig.11.
TIP 1: It is easier to get to the eye of the needle (5) when the work-plate is pulled out
of the way. Loosen the wing-nut below and to the right of the work-plate amd put the
work-plate towards you (Fig 12). Additionally, if you engage the knee-lifter, it will

move the Cylinder Bed downward, giving you even more room.
TIP 2:
If you are having trouble getting the thread thru the needle,
a standard needle threading device (available everywhere) might
help. You would put the device wires thru the needle from the
top, put the thread in the wire loop and pull the thread through.
Thread the needle from below in
an upward direction as in Fig.11.
