5 Steps On How To Thread On A Viking Sewing Machine

By Young Lindsay


So many questions has been asked about how to get an appropriate sewing machine. This is probably because purchasing one is not part of the everyday tasks that we do. It is a complicated task to do but with adequate information it will be a no sweat job at all. They are great investments for anybody because they are used to stitch different textiles together in a short period of time.

Sewing has been one of the major industries all over the world. But it is only until the late seventeen century that these machines are invented. It is design to speed the production of any clothing material by saving time. They were sold individually before but now many of them are widely sold in the market. One of them is the Viking sewing machines that has draw the interest of many people because of its excellent stitch quality and user friendliness. It was first sold in Huskvana, Sweden and then later on spread across the globe.

If you have one, you should know the loops and hooks about it like the different threading techniques available. That is important because doing that may vary depending on the model you have. There are a number of ways how to do it but there are two major ways how. One is by doing it with a threaded needle or by starting from the back or side of the machine.

The overall process might be hard at first but once you familiarize the steps, everything comes smoothly. It does not require any special skills or materials so you need not to worry. Press down the latch so the bobbin will not go anywhere if you decide to remove it.

Let go of the latch and flip the hollow part of the bobbin. This is to face the tiny round dot outward. Slide it in the spindle afterwards. Run the thread on its guide unto the upper back of the machine. If you prefer to have your needle threaded, place it in the front area on the side after raising the presser foot.

Wind your thread all over the bobbin as much as you need. Press the foot control once you are ready. This time, the instrument will stop if it is packed. Cut the thread after removal.

Roll the thread on the bobbin and trim before the automatic winding starts. The foot control will do that and it will stop once the bobbin is full. To hinder any unwanted tightness and possible breakage, see if the thread is turning clockwise. Find out if it is being pulled on the way to the spring.

Insert the thread into the hasp of the bobbin case. Put the case inside equipment. Enclose the compartment door in preparation for your sewing activity.

If you own an older version of the machine, the process will end by using your hand after you put the bobbin back in its casing. But for the modern versions, everything is through the moment you wind it up. Some styles of threading may be required based on the version you have, so it is of utmost importance to always check your manual before starting.
