Threading the Magicfly 12-Stitches Mini Sewing Machine may seem daunting at first, but it's a straightforward process. Here's how to do it step-by-step:
- Preparation: Place your machine on a stable surface. Ensure it's either plugged into a power source or that you've correctly installed 4 AA batteries.
- Spool Placement: Take your thread spool and place it on the spool pin, which is located on the top of the machine. Make sure the thread unwinds in a clockwise direction.
- Thread Guide 1: Pull the thread's end and guide it through the thread guide found on the top of the machine. Then, bring it down through the tension control dial.
- Thread Guide 2 & Take-Up Lever: Continue guiding the thread through the thread guide on the machine's front. Then, direct it upwards through the take-up lever, a small metal hook situated right above the needle area.
- Thread Guide 3: From the take-up lever, guide the thread back down through the thread guide on the front of the machine, and finally, through the needle bar thread guide.
- Needle Threading: Thread the needle from front to back, leaving a thread tail that's about 4 to 6 inches long.
- Tension Check: To make sure the tension is correct, hold the thread tail and manually turn the hand-wheel counterclockwise. This raises the needle and catches the bobbin thread. Gently pull the thread tail to bring up the bobbin thread.
- Ready to Sew: Once the bobbin thread is brought up, you're all set to begin sewing.
