What is the meaning and function of thread guide?

Thread guides lead the thread in this order: Thread Spool to Tension Discs to Take-Up Lever to Needle. A machine is threaded with the take-up lever in its highest position and the presser bar lifted. Generally, the thread guides provide a path that keeps the thread from crossing over itself. From the spool, any thread guides mounted on the top cover are first, back to front. On the face plate (front of machine) any thread guides that sit to the right of the tension discs are threaded before inserting thread around & between the discs. If there be any thread guide that is BOTH to the left of the tension discs AND right of the take up lever, the thread would go there next. My fairly typical Japanese Zigzag Machine does not have a thread guide between the tension discs and the take-up lever, but if there were one, I would call it the "Tension to Take-Up Lever Thread Guide." From there the thread passes right-to left through the hole of the take up lever, and then down through all thread guides mounted to the left of the take-up lever. Lastly, the thread goes down through a needle clamp thread guide and through the eye of the needle. Not a short answer, but I hope it addresses your question.

How do you thread Elna 1500 sewing machine?

First, raise the presser foot lever and turn the flywheel towards you to raise the thread take-up lever to its highest point. Next,, place your spool of thread on the horizontal post and hold in place with the spool cap. You know that little nick in the spool where you tuck your thread so the spool won't unravel? Make sure that nick is pointing to the right. Now draw your thread to the left and "click" it into the little silver loop. A 1" oval thread guide sits to the left of that silver loop; draw your thread around the left of the thread guide. Now you're going to loop your thread through the tension discs. You'll see two "cracks" in your machine. First run your thread DOWN through the RIGHT crack, then immediately UP through the LEFT crack. At the top of the LEFT crack is your silver thread take-up lever. This is probably the trickiest part of threading your machine because the lever is always kind of inside the machine. But you can do it! Pass your thread from RIGHT to LEFT through the back of the loop at the top of the silver lever. Whew! We're almost there. Now draw your thread right back down the same crack you pulled it up before. You now have two stationary guides above your needle. Pass it through the thick silver guide and then through the thin silver guide. Both of these moves are kind of a left-to-right motion. Now thread your needle from FRONT to BACK. You're done -- well, except for the bobbin. Hold your bobbin spool above the bobbin case so that it looks like a letter "P" Draw the bobblin thread from RIGHT to LEFT through the small crack in the silver part of the bobbin case, then pull the thread straight toward the back of the machine. Now turn your flywheel one revolution toward you so that your upper thread picks up the bobbin thread. Now close your bobbin cover, and SEW! Congratulations! You did it!


How do you thread a Sears Kenmore model 158.14001?

Take the thread through the first thread guide which is on the right, then through the needle guide notch. Wind the thread around the tension dial and pull up to the left of the dial. Pull the thread into the thread guide at the bottom. Take the thread from front to back through the needle eye.
