bRaise the needle by turning the handwheel toward you (counterclockwise) to raise the thread take-up lever to its highest position.

cPull up the spool pin as far as possible, and then put a spool of thread on this pin.

CAUTION

●If the spool of thread is in the wrong place, or is set incorrectly, the thread may tangle on the spool pin and cause the needle to break.

dFeed the upper thread through both thread guides: the rear one first, then the front one.

ePull the thread down and around the upper tension control dial from the right to the left so the thread picks up the thread check spring.

•If the needle is not correctly raised, the sewing machine can not be threaded. Be sure to turn the handwheel before threading the sewing machine.
