How to Thread a Sewing Machine

Always study the instruction manual that comes with your machine before attempting to thread it. However, most sewing machines operate the same way. Once you master treading your machine, you will easily be able to work on others.

Step 1:

Handwheels on a sewing machine are designed to allow the user to slowly raise and lower the take up lever. So, with the handwheel, raise the take- up lever. Some older machines have two handwheels, an inner wheel and an outer wheel. On these machines, you must hold the outer wheel while turning the inner wheel.

Step 2:

Place the thread on the spool pin.

Step 3:

Lining up the tread with the guides, pull the thread through and secure it.

Step 4:

Manipulate the thread through the take-up leaver and pull through any additional guides on the machine.

Step 5:

To thread the bobbin, which provides the machine the ability to create an outside stitch, disengage the wheel, and place the bobbin on the bobbin winder.

Step 6:

Open the slide plate of your machine, place the bobbin in the bobbin case .Raise, and lower the needle until it catches the thread from the bobbin.

If you do not properly thread your sewing machine, you will not be able to use it. Study your owner's manual to learn how the different parts of your machine work.
