Threading For Twin Needle 2:7 - Husqvarna Viking Viking Topaz 40 User Manual

THREADING FOR TWIN NEEDLE
1. Insert a twin needle.
2. Use a second thread spool or wind a bobbin with the
thread you are going to use as the second upper thread.
3. Lift the spool pin up and all the way to the right. Lock
the spool pin in the vertical position by slightly pressing
it down. Slide on a spool cap. For spools smaller than the
medium size spool cap, place a felt pad under the thread
spool.
4. Place the first thread spool on the spool pin. The spool
should rotate in a clockwise direction when the thread reels
off the spool.
5. Left needle: Thread the machine as described on page 2:5.
Check to ensure that the thread lies between the left thread
tension discs (A). Thread the left needle manually.
6. Pull out the auxiliary spool pin and slide on a spool cap.
For spools smaller than the medium size spool cap, place a
felt pad under the thread spool.

Note: Only use symmetrical twin needles (C).
Do not use this type of twin needle (D), since
it may damage your sewing machine.
7. Place the second thread on the spool pin. The second
spool should rotate in a counterclockwise direction when the
thread reels off the spool.
8. Right needle: Thread the machine as before but this thread
should lie between the right thread tension discs (A) and
outside the needle thread guide (B). Thread the right
needle manually.
Note: Activate and choose the correct needle width in Sewing Settings in
SET Menu to prevent damage to the needle or the presser foot.
Note: If using specialty threads (such as metallic threads) its weight and
irreglular surface increases the thread tension. By reducing the tension, the
risk of needle breakage is prevented.
