OMG...perfect! Thank you so much for threading this machine...I just picked one up and all the threads came undone during the trip home and I had to rethread...with your help, I was able to do it pretty quickly! I thank you SO much!
This is very informative. I received this machine yesterday and was frustrated with it. Thank you. You are a great teacher/sales person. Just two minor notes on what I did. I gave up on threading the needle with the threader. My old-fashioned way is to wet the needle eye, then use eyebrow tweezers to put the thread through the eye (I find eyebrow tweezers get a better hold of the thread). I have two other machines with the threading zigamagig which has not worked for me. I wet the needle and not the thread. If I can’t find the needle hole, I put a white piece of paper or fabric behind the needle so that I can see it better. Another thing I did is putting the leftmost thread through the left guide plate and not the right side as shown in Page 22 of the Janome Instruction Book. Again, thank you for helping us out on learning how to operate a serger-type machine, which are not easy by far.
Thank you for a great tutorial. I had to change the thread colour for the first time and was panicking about that but your tutorial made it so easy. Thank you
I have the 2000CPX. This video has helped with the threading far better than the manual. I haven't tried running the machine yet. That is the next challenge.
I love the way you get right to the point in this video! I followed your instructions for threading the 1000CPX, and the upper threads break when I sew. This is a new machine. Should the needles be changed, or, the should the tensions, or, the dealer demo threads be changed? TIA for your help. I used a muslin to test it.
Thank You for your tutorial. I just ordered the 900 and am waiting for it to arrive. I can't wait ! I did hear something about putting a nylon thread for the lower looper ... are you familiar with this information ?
Thank you so much for this! I threaded my machine with your help! I just can't figure out the needle threader tool. Mine came with a sticker on the back covering how to use it and I can't quite see what you are doing. I tried googling and a photo that looked right (of the janome needle threader) took me to a site I wish I could un-see! Argh. Anyway, thank you for this video!
Love your videos. I always learn something. What is that bright light you have hooked onto your table for extra lighting? Thank you so much. you are so sweet.
I don't know if now you can hear the click, but the sound is heard when the presser foot is down. if you are threading your machine with the presser foot up you can't hear it because the tension is release.
@@SewingReport yeah , that didn't work! none of the authorized dealers have this part and its very disappointing because I cannot use the three thread option!
If you can figure out the part name / number I'd check around websites that sell parts or even eBay. Worth a try. Buying secondhand can save you money but if there are parts missing it's also a risk.
Also did you contact Janome directly or authorized dealers? I don't personally have a contact with Janome but I'd imagine there has to be some way to purchase parts.

Ruth Bowler me too! Just got mine ....I’m a visual learner
Brilliant, informative, excellent camera angles. To the point. Really appreciated this video. Thank you your a star.
Thank you so much Sis God bless you richly. Just to let you know God loves you too
I had no idea you just left the looper thread alone once you threaded it. Once again, you’ve helped me thank you!
Glad you found this helpful!!!
This was my question also! Thanks so much for your helpful vids.

Thank you so much! Your videos helped me a lot with this machine. Thank you for being so clear and informed!!

Thank you. You got me started. Still can't get the threaded to work so had to thread the old fashioned way.
Keep trying Viv, you'll get it!
Im so excited. I just bought this machine.
+mzzzol It is a solid machine!

It's an OttLite
Just a quick question when you got your Janome 1000 when you turn the hand will it ever feel like rough in a way?
Thank you!
Thank you! I think I must need to see things done instead of reading about it.
I'm having problems with threading it on the tension part. I don't hear any click when I'm trying to push the thread there.
I don't know if now you can hear the click, but the sound is heard when the presser foot is down. if you are threading your machine with the presser foot up you can't hear it because the tension is release.
@@dihanha yes.. ive noticed that also..it says in the instructions that the presser foot should be up for threading..:-)
Thanks for the video but I am having trouble with the tension of my serger.
Sorry to hear that! I usually play around with the tension settings on scrap fabrics until I get a result that works. It can be tedious - good luck!
Thanks.
The bottom thread on mine keeps snapping and I’ve rethreaded it a few times and have no idea why :(
How can I find extra screws to hold the needles in , I bought my machine second hand and missing a screw to hold the third needle in! Help?
Your best bet would be to try contacting the manufacturer directly
