The provided reference doesn't detail self-threading mechanics. However, the reference describes steps for threading a sewing machine needle, likely as the final step for the auto-threading mechanism, assuming a self-threading machine also includes the rest of the threading path. Here's how to do the final step as shown in the video referenced:
Threading the Needle After the Automatic Threading Mechanism
Most self-threading machines use a mechanism to automatically guide the thread through the upper part of the machine. The final step is usually threading the needle, which is described in the reference as follows:
- Guide the Thread: After the automatic threading mechanism has engaged, take the thread and guide it under a small plastic hook.
- Pass the Needle's Eye: Bring the thread right past the eye of the needle.
- Release and Loop: Release the thread. The loop of thread should spring into the eye of the needle or with a slight push.
Example Step-by-Step (Final Step)
| Step | Action | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Hook Guidance | Lead the thread under the small plastic hook located close to the needle. |
| 2 | Needle Alignment | Guide the thread directly past the needle eye, ensuring the thread is positioned to thread itself as described in the final step. |
| 3 | Release and Assist | Release the thread to allow the automatic function to loop it through. A gentle nudge may be needed. |
Important Note: The process of getting the thread to the point where it's ready for these final steps varies by the specific self-threading machine. Follow the instructions provided by your machine's manufacturer. The instructions above focus on the final thread engagement with the needle.
