Introduction

In the innovation lab, a Juki sewing station is available and this guide should explain step by step how to properly and efficiently use this machine. Before jumping in, make sure to keep the area clean and if there are steps in the guide that do not make sense there is a similar guide that can help, "How to Thread the Juki Machine ". There are also facilitators that can help.

  1. Equipment  needed  before threading are Nylon thread , correct fitting needle that inserts into the machine , light attached , bobin in and threaded (SEE BOBIN GUIDE) Equipment  needed  before threading are Nylon thread , correct fitting needle that inserts into the machine , light attached , bobin in and threaded (SEE BOBIN GUIDE) Equipment  needed  before threading are Nylon thread , correct fitting needle that inserts into the machine , light attached , bobin in and threaded (SEE BOBIN GUIDE)

  2. On the arm, there is a hole at the very tip on the far left. Insert the thread from the back to the front of the hole toward the user.

  3. There are two silver thread holders on the top of the machine and the first one is the back side sticking up with two holes. The thread should be inserted through the bottom hole from the back to the front. Then, go back around to the back again and insert the thread on the top hole again back to the front. The second thread holder is located at the front and also has two holes but is smaller. Pull the thread in the first step from the right to the left of the top hole of the holder. After, wrap the thread to the right side of the bottom hole and pull it through the left again. The second thread holder is located at the front and also has two holes but is smaller. Pull the thread in the first step from the right to the left of the top hole of the holder. After, wrap the thread to the right side of the bottom hole and pull it through the left again.

  4. At the bottom front left, there is a knob and a few silver hooks surrounding it. Wrap the thread from right to left in a clockwise motion so the thread wraps the bottom of the knob. Pull the thread through two silver hooks to the left and then push the thread to the top hook and pull it through.

  5. On the top left above the last hook that was threaded in step 3, there is an uptake lever. Pull the thread up and through the hole from right to left. Then right below, bring the thread straight down and pull it through another silver hook.

  6. Down where the needle should be there is a small silver hook right above the needle. Bring the thread down and push the thread from top to the bottom through the hook. Then, keep pulling the thread down to the needle hold and pull the thread through the needle hole from left to right and the thread should circle the needle shaft.

  7. After threading through several hooks and holes in different directions, make sure the needle is raised. This can be done by locating the hand knob on the right and turning it. This can also be used to lower the needle to pinpoint where on the fabric the sewing will start.
