THREADING
1) To thread the machine,
follow the Threading Diagram – click on the machine style below to
acces the online diagram – provided with each machine. A duplicate
may be obtained upon request provided that the style and serial number of the
machine is included with the request. The matter of threading is important and
although simple, it must be accurate.
2) When threading the
Looper Threads, it will be found convenient to use a threading wire. With the
thread or yarn inserted in the eye of the threading wire, pass the wire through
the thread eyes and tension discs as shown on the threading diagram. To place
the Lower Looper in position to be threaded, turn the Hand Wheel until the
Needle is in its highest position. Then, it will be possible to pass the
threading wire through both the Lower Looper Thread Tube and the Lower Looper
simultaneously.
3) The machine is
ready to “chain” after threading the Needle or Needle and Looper as
shown on the Threading Diagram.
4) It is generally
advisable to keep tension on the thread as light as necessary to produce good
results.
