Before you begin sewing, ensure your machine is properly set up. This includes placing the machine, connecting power, and correctly threading the machine.

2.1 Machine Placement and Power

Place the machine on a stable, flat surface. Connect the power cord to the machine and then to a suitable electrical outlet. Ensure the foot pedal is connected if you plan to use it.

2.2 Avvolgimento della bobina

1. Place your thread spool on the spool pin.
2. Guide the thread around the first thread guide (usually marked '1').
3. Wrap the thread around the bobbin winding tension disc.
4. Thread the bobbin through one of the small holes on its top.
5. Place the bobbin onto the bobbin winder spindle and push it to the right until it clicks into place.
6. Hold the thread tail and gently press the foot pedal or start button to begin winding. Once a small amount of thread is wound, clip the thread tail.
7. Continue winding until the bobbin is full. The machine will slow down or stop automatically. Push the bobbin winder spindle back to the left and remove the wound bobbin.

2.3 Infilatura della macchina

1. Ensure the presser foot is raised and the needle is in its highest position.
2. Place your thread spool on the spool pin.
3. Guide the thread around the first thread guide (usually marked '1').
4. Draw the thread down the right channel (marked '2') and up the left channel (marked '3').
5. At the top of the left channel, hook the thread from right to left into the take-up lever (marked '4'). If the take-up lever is not visible, turn the handwheel towards you until it appears.
6. Draw the thread down the left channel again (marked '5').
7. Thread the needle from front to back. Use the built-in needle threader for assistance: pull the needle threader lever down, hook the thread under the small plastic hook, and then release the lever. A small loop of thread will be pulled through the needle eye. Pull this loop through to complete threading.
8. Pull about 6 inches of thread through the needle eye and pass it under the presser foot.
