Preparation
As a thread-guide eyelet (Fig. 1)
Use the unit without lubricator for a controlled guiding of the thread into the pretensioner, e.g. when using lively thread
types.
As a thread lubricator (Fig. 2)
Using the lubricator is advisable when using e.g. threads with high function values, metallic threads, loosely twisted
thread types etc. The silicone fluid improves the threads‘ gliding properties considerably and therefore helps to produce
flawless stitching results.
Assembly
► insert the unit into the spool-holder cover fixture and
push down entirely (Fig. 1)
Thread-Guide-and-Lubricating Unit
The silicone fluid must ONLY be used
for thread lubrication. Never use it to
lubricate the hook system!
► insert the lubricator into the holder on the left side of the
unit, taking care to place the lubricator in such way that
the openings for the thread are in line with the thread
flow or thread direction (Fig. 2)
► moisten the felt, add a few drops of silicone fluid
► place the thread spool onto the middle or rear spool pin
as usual. Then guide the thread through the respective
eyelet of the telescopic rod and the eyelet of the
thread-guide-and-lubricating unit
► hold the thread with both hands, pull it in to the slit of the
felt, pulling it down as far as it goes so that it‘ll stay in
the felt during machine operation (Fig. 3)
► continue and complete threading the sewing computer
as normal
► take care that the felt remains moistened. It mustn‘t dry
out. Apply some drops of silicone fluid once in a while to
keep it moist
When using the Thread-Guide-and-Lubrification Unit and
depending on the type of thread used it might be neces-
sary to reduce the upper-thread tension slightly to achieve
perfect stitching results,
► to remove the Thread-Guide-and-Lubrification Unit,
push the entire unit up
Reattach the Thread-Guide-and-Lubrification Unit. Thread
the sewing computer as usual, including the eyelet of the
unit (Fig. 2).
► during the initial threading of the sewing computer and
when the radial thread release is used it is advisable to
pull an extra inch of thread from the spool before the
threader button is pushed (Fig. 4)
