Left Needle

Looper Thread Fine-Tuning Knob

No adjustments are needed when sewing with most fabrics and
threads on your Baby Lock EnlightenWave, but certain threads or
fabrics may require minor fine-tuning of the looper delivery system
to perfect your stitches. Increase or decrease the delivery of the
looper threads with the upper and lower looper thread fine-tuning
screw. With a screwdriver (found in accessory kit), turn the fine-tun-
ing screw clockwise to tighten the looper threads equally. Turn the
screw counter-clockwise to loosen the looper threads equally.

Looper threads are

too loose.

1. Set the needle threader selector on "R" (right needle) or "L" (left needle). (Fig.A)
2. Press the needle threader lever down (Fig. B) so that the hook goes into the eye of the

needle. The hook will remain in the eye of the needle.

3. Hold the needle thread horizontally with both hands and position the thread into the threader

hook guides on top of thread hook (illustration C for correct positioning).

4. Tap the needle threader lever down again. (Fig.D) The hook will pull the thread through the

eye of the needle as it is released.

5. Carefully remove the loop of thread from the needle threader hook and place the thread under

the presser foot and to the left.

Note: With the machine in the threading position, this sets the needle position for using the
needle threader.
This is also a safety feature when threading the needles, as the machine cannot sew while in the
threading position.

1.

With the presser foot up and the machine engaged in the threading mode (page 10, fig. A),

set the

needle threader selector on "L" to thread the left needle (illustrated below).

Note: Be sure to push the needle threader selector all the way to "L".

2. Place the thread on the far left spool pin on the thread stand (illustration on page 12).

Thread needle thread guides A and B, through the groove on the front of the machine and
through guides C,D,E,F and G.

3. Lower the presser foot and thread the left needles as in steps 4 and 5, under "Right Needle".
