Pulling Up the Bobbin Thread

A

B

1. After inserting the bobbin into the machine, turn the

handwheel towards you (counterclockwise) several
times until the eye of the needle catches and lifts up
the thread. (Fig. A)

2. Raise the presser foot.

3. Slide tweezers between the bottom of the presser

foot and needle plate from back to front to pull the
thread to the surface. (Fig. B)

4. Pull the thread to the left side of the needle plate.

(Fig. C)

5. Grasp and hold the thread tautly with the left hand,

turn the handwheel towards you (counterclockwise)
until the lower thread take-up lever catches the
thread. (Fig. D)

6. While still holding the thread taut use the right hand

to close the side cover. Draw the thread into the slot
of the thread cutter/holder located on the side
cover. If necessary, cut excess thread. (Fig. E)

NOTE: Bobbin thread will remain in only one of the
double eye thread guides of the bobbin case once the
bobbin thread has been pulled to the surface of the
machine.

ATTENTION: Do not sew without fabric under the
presser foot once the machine has been threaded.
