Threading

The threading routes will change according to the selected program.

As you learn to thread your machine, we recommend using threads of the same colors as those of the tension dials. This will help you understand the function of each thread.

Tension settings of the programs are based on the sewer using polyester or polyester/cotton blend threads for all threading positions. Choose good quality threads of even and consistent thickness.

NOTE:

The threads are stretched as they pass through the tension discs while sewing. Therefore, it is important to use high tensile threads such as polyester or polyester/cotton blend. 100% cotton thread is too weak and will result in threads breaking.

IMPORTANT:

Locate the threading diagram for the stitch, study the threading guides carefully and use each guide indicated. The machine must be threaded in the correct sequence. Follow the sequence shown on the Quick Reference Threading Charts. (See pages 32-45.)
