Needle threader
The needle threader allows you to thread the
needle automatically. The needle must be in the up
position to use the built-in needle threader. We also
recommend lowering the presser foot.
1. Use the handle to pull the needle threader all

through the needle eye.

3. Let the needle threader gently swing back. The
hook pulls the thread through the needle eye
and forms a loop behind the needle. Pull the
thread loop out behind the needle.
Note: The needle threader is designed to be used for size
70-120 needles. You cannot use the needle threader for
size 60 needles or smaller, a wing needle, twin needle or
triple needle. There are also some optional accessories
that require manual threading of the needle.
Threading for twin needle
Replace the sewing needle with a twin needle.
Make sure that the presser foot is raised and the
needle is in the up position.

do not become twisted together.
5. Thread the needles.
Note: If using specialty threads (such as metallic
threads) its weight and irreglular surface increases
the thread tension. By reducing the tension, the risk of
needle breakage is prevented.
