Opening the free arm
For threading the yarns the free arm 0 must be opened.
1.Pull the arm support 9 off to the side.
2.Open the front flap 8.
3.Press the release lever "PUSH" f and, at the same time, pull the free arm 0 downwards.
Correct threading is important, so that the stitches are not irregular and that the yarn does not break. On the inner side of the front flap 8 there is a guide to threading. Additionally, the thread guides are marked in various colours.
In the accessory box you will find pincers, the use of which helps make threading easier.
Threading takes place in this sequence:
1. | First step: | Upper looper s (green) |
2. | Second step: | Lower looper d (blue) |
3. | Third step: | Right needle (yellow) |
4. | Fourth step: | Left needle (red) |
For simplification, the individual steps are numbered on the illustrations (1 q, 2 w, 3 e, 4 r, ...).
1.Open the front flap 8 and free arm 0.
2.Turn the handwheel 6 to yourself until the looper s is in the most favourable position for threading.
3.Thread the upper and lower looper yarns as shown.

Attention!
Before starting to thread yarns, ALWAYS place the power switch 7 at OFF and remove the plug j. This will prevent an unintentional starting of the ap- pliance. If you do not, you run a risk of serious injury!
