Step 1. Thread the upper thread

  • Check if you turned off the sewing machine
  • Lift the needle bar to the highest position
  • Thread the upper thread according to the sequence shown in the Euro Pro model’s manual

  • Thread the needle front to back and leave four inches of thread behind it

Step 2. Wind the bobbin

  • Draw the thread through the bobbin winder tension disk front to back

  • Hold the upper thread and turn the handwheel with your other hand to raise the needle to the highest level
