The thread is pre-set at the factory

When you wish to change the needle
thread, left looper thread or right
looper thread with a different thread,
the following steps will make the
changing convenient.
(1) Cut the thread near the spool and
tie the end to the thread you wish
to change to as shown in figure at
right.
(2) Raise presser foot.
(3)
Turn the tension dials down
toward the minus (—) sign until
the dial stops and draw the thread
out so that the tie knot of the
threads extend about 5cm (2
inches) from the presser foot.
When drawing needle thread
through the needle eye, stop the
tie knot before the needle eye, cut
the thread and pass it through the
needle eye.

4. Chain off and test sew
When the machine is completely threaded,
turn the machine pulley toward you 2 or 3
turns while holding the 3 threads applying a
slight tension as shown in figure at left.
After chaining off, make a test stitch on a
sample of your fabric so that you can adjust
the thread tensions correctly.
Thread cutter
After completing the
seam, chain off approx,
5cm (2 inches) as shown
in figure at left and cut
thread with the thread
cutter on the presser
foot.
