Threading the needle
Raise the presser foot. Place the thread on the spool pin and fi t a spool
cap of the right size.
Using both hands, pull the thread into the thread guide (A) from front
to back. Place the thread from the right underneath the bobbin winder
thread guide (B).
Now pass it through the left-hand threading slot downwards.
Pull the thread around the stop (C) in the right-hand threading slot and
upwards to the take-up lever (E). The thread must be pulled fully into
the take-up lever from left to right. Pass the thread downwards in the
right-hand threading slot.
Pull the thread from the side behind one of the two thread
guides (D).
To thread the needle, please refer to the next section.
Note: When sewing always place the thread underneath the bobbin winder thread guide
(B).
Needle threader
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.
