threading the top thread

Set the spool of thread (sold separately) onto the top thread Spool

Pin (40i), (the left Spool Pin), and thread it through the eyelet directly

above on the Thread Hanger (28i). Guide the thread through the machine,

following the steps and photos below.
note: There are two Spool Pins (40i). The left Pin is commonly used to

hold the spool of thread for the top thread (the thread that passes

through the top section of the machine), while the right Pin is used to

hold the spool of thread that is used for winding the bobbin.
