What are the steps to properly thread the Juki MO-3500?

• Turn off the machine
  Always start by cutting the power to avoid any accidents.
• Raise the presser foot and needles

• Prepare the threads
  Place the spools or cones on the spool holders and pull the threads.
• Follow the color-coded threading guide
  The Juki MO-3500 sewing machine offers a thread path clearly marked by colors for each looper and needle.
• Activate pneumatic threading for the loopers
  Place the thread in the pneumatic system opening, press the lever or air button. The thread will be automatically pushed into the lower and upper loopers.
• Manually thread or use the automatic needle threaderFor models equipped with a needle threader, place the thread in the slot then lower the threading lever to insert the thread into the eye. Otherwise, manually thread the right needle first, then the left needle if you are sewing with two needles.

• Gently pull the threads under the presser foot
  Align the threads behind the presser foot to prevent them from tangling at the start.
• Final check
  Check that all threads are correctly in their guides, tension discs, and that the thread paths are followed.

• Perform a sewing test
  Sew a few centimeters of fabric to ensure the threads are properly threaded and the stitch is even.
