THREADING YOUR SIMPLICITY SEWING MACHINE
1. Turn the handwheel toward you to raise the take-up
lever to its highest position [Fig. 1].
2. Raise the presser foot to release the thread tension [Fig. 2].
3. Place felt cushion on spool pin. Place a spool of
thread on the spool pin with the thread coming from
the back of the spool [Fig. 3].
4. From the front, slide the thread under and then over
the hook-shaped thread guide on the left, so the
thread rests between the hook and the metal tension
plate[Fig. 4].
5. Bring the thread down between the tension discs [Fig. 5].
6. Bring the thread down the right slot of the threading
path, then across to and up the left slot [Fig. 6].
7. Bring the thread through the take-up lever from right
to left [Fig. 7], making sure the thread falls into the
take-up lever slot [Fig. 8].
8. Bring the thread back down the left slot of the
threading path [Fig. 9] and into the thread guide
above the needle [Fig. 10].
9. Thread the needle eye from front to back [Fig. 11].
(Clip the thread end with sharp scissors for easier
needle threading.)
Raising the bobbin thread
1. Make sure the presser foot lever is raised.
2. Hold the end of the needle thread with your left
hand. Turn the hand wheel toward you with your
right hand until the needle goes down once and
comes back up, stopping when the needle is at its
highest position.
3. Gently pull up on the needle thread [Fig. 12]. The
bobbin thread, looped around the needle thread, will
be drawn up through the needle hole.
4. Pull about six inches of both the upper and lower
threads toward the back of the machine, placing
them under the presser foot [Fig. 13].
