i have my juki tl98q on my frame. since i am not 100% sure of the threading, i made a copy of the threading instructions from the manual and keep it right under the machine... very handy!

Watched the video, thanks.
I never could figure out how to use the needle threader. Now I know, its easier to just thread the needle so Im not missing anything.

LOL! That's what I was thinking when I watched the video! I'll try out the needle threader, but it seems like it would be just as much of a challenge to use it as it would be to thread the needle myself.

I had to keep looking at my manual for my Singer for at least 3 months. lol. My new machine has the numbers and arrows, even without them, it is still easier to thread.

I keep my manual for my Janome Horizon right by the machine and I use it a lot. The automatic needle threader was a mystery to me for months, and then one day I kept at it and figured it out. Now, I never thread the machine the old way..... darn bifocals anyway!

I have that machine and I am sure you will enjoy it. Just remember to thread the needle from the left hand side as you put the needle in side-on, not so that it is facing you.Happy sewing.

mine had the guide printed right on the machine and I went back to the shop(over an our away)"#&% 3 times to finally figure it out.

I've had my Brother NX 2000 since last October but still use the manual regularly. The threader on it was fairly easy to learn but I had trouble learning the threader on my Bernina 380. It just did not make sense to me and the pictures in the manual didn't help. Love both my machines but there is no way I will remember all that they do and put the manuals away. They are my BFFs.

Enjoy your machine. Fun times ahead!
