Threading Loopers with the Looper Threading
Wire or Standard Thread
If the looper threads are made from materials that are
difficult to thread, such as wooly nylon, there are 2
ways to thread the looper threads:
• Use the looper threading wire (looper threader)
• Tie the thread to standard thread, which you then
use to thread.
