Threading a Singer automatic needle threader involves a specific process to ensure the thread catches correctly. Based on the provided reference, here's how to do it:
-
Engage the Threader: Activate the automatic needle threader mechanism on your Singer sewing machine.
-
Thread Placement: Position the thread so it properly engages with the threader. According to the reference, you should "feel it click when it went in there". This indicates that the thread is correctly positioned within the threader mechanism.
-
Release the Mechanism: Once you feel the click, release the threader mechanism.
-
Check the Thread: After releasing, ensure the thread has been successfully caught and pulled through the needle's eye. Be careful not to unthread it accidentally while checking, as demonstrated in the reference where the user states, "Now see there's my thread oops and I just unthreaded it because I wasn't watching."
Troubleshooting Tips:
-
Ensure Proper Engagement: The "click" sound is crucial. If you don't hear or feel it, the thread may not be correctly positioned.
-
Careful Release: After threading, avoid accidentally pulling the thread back out while inspecting it.
