Proper threading is crucial for consistent stitch formation. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Raise the hand wheel towards you to lift the needle to its highest position and raise the presser foot.
2. Place the spool of thread on the spool pin and guide the thread through all designated threading points.
3. Thread the needle from front to back, ensuring the thread passes through the eye of the needle smoothly.
4. For bobbin threading, turn the hand wheel towards you while holding the needle thread. This will bring up the bobbin thread.
