2-3. How to Change Threads

Tie threads
Cut thread
(2) Lower the presser foot lifter to lift up the press er foot.
(3) Set tensions to 0 so that the thread knot can
pass through smoothly, draw out the looper thread until the thread knot comes to about 10 cm past the presser foot.
(4) When changing the needle thread, cut off the thread knot before it reaches the eye of the nee dle to avoid bending the needle as the knot is pulled and caught in the needle’s eye.
To make the above threading easier, use tweezers.
