In order to make threading of the needle easier and quicker the Pfaff needle threader is built-in. The needle threader allows you to thread the needle automatically.

1.Lower the presser foot. Press the threader down with the handle. The threader hook (G) swivels through the needle eye.

2.Place the thread from the back, over the hook (F) and under the thread hook (G) and hold the end of the thread taut. Reduce the pressure so that the needle threader slowly moves upwards.

3.At the same time, the threader hook swivels out of the needle eye and pulls the thread through the eye. Slightly release the end of the thread, so that a thread loop can form behind the needle. Release the threader and pull the rest of the thread end through the needle eye.
