Lower Looper

1. With the presser foot up and machine lock button in the locked position (fig. A) , set the looper threader
selector lever to "L" for lower looper threading (fig. B).
2. Place the thread cone or spool on the far right spool pin. Slip the thread into the telescopic antenna thread
guide "1" directly above the spool, snap into the thread guide "2" at the top of the machine, through the
slot on the front of the machine. (See fig. C page 11)
3. Pull 18 inches (45cm) of thread through guide "3". Insert the end of the thread into the threading port "L"
about 1 inch (2.5cm) . Use tweezers if necessary, to insert the thread end more easily.
4. Depress the looper threading lever (fig. D page 11) . If the thread does not go through the lower looper
eye with one push, depress the threading lever again until it does.
5. Clip the thread 4 inches (10cm) from the lower looper eye and leave it hanging loose.
6. Move the lock button release lever to the right.
