Threading for Twin Needle
Replace the sewing needle with a twin needle. Make sure that the presser foot is raised and
the needle is in its highest position.
1. Place the thread spool on the spool pin
and fit the appropriately sized spool
cap. Insert the auxiliary spool pin.

pad. Place the second thread spool on
the spool pin.
2. Pull the threads into the thread guide

become twisted.
5. Thread the needles manually from
front to back.
Note: When you are using a twin needle, you
might need to reduce the stitch width to pre-
vent damage of the twin needle, stitch plate
or presser foot. How much you need to reduce
it depends on the width and/or the size of the
twin needle.
Note: The weight and irregular surface of
specialty threads such as metallic increases the
amount of friction on the thread. By reduc-
ing the tension, the risk of needle breakage is
prevented.
