Threading The Upper Thread - Medion MD 17187 Manual De Instrucciones

4.5. T hreading the upper thread
Please read the following instructions carefully as an incorrect sequence or
thread guiding can lead to broken threads, missed stitches and gathered fab-
ric.
 A diagram of how to guide the thread is provided on the front flap; you can
also use this drawing as a guideline.
 Before threading the needle (26), raise the needle to its highest position by
turning the hand wheel (21) and raise the presser foot lever (17) to its high-
est position.
 Place a cotton reel on one of the cotton reel holders (15), making sure the
thread is routed forward over the back of the cotton reel.
 Hold the cotton reel with your right hand.
NOTICE!
The illustration is only for clarification; the front flap must not be opened.
 Pass the thread through the upper thread guide (9).
 Then pass the thread between the tension discs of the upper thread ten-
sion regulator (3) as illustrated.
TIP
An upper thread tension of 3 is ideal for most applications.
