Bobbin Winding
In order to ensure correct bobbin winding, follow
the above diagram for correct threading. Use both
hands to thread machine around the guide for
correct tension.
Pro tip:
Because different brands of thread unwind
in various manners, sometimes it is helpful to lightly
hold the thread as it comes off the spool. This will
help create smooth and tightly wound bobbins -
which is important for a good stitch.
Top Threading
Before you begin to thread, make sure the presser
foot is in the up position and the needle is at the
highest position. Lift the foot by using the presser
foot lifter behind the machine. To raise the needle,
always turn the handwheel on the right side of
the machine toward you. This will help ensure that
the threading guides are in the proper position to
receive the thread and the needle threader will line
up with the eye of the needle.
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Janome HD-1000.
We’ve compiled a few tips that will help you get the most out of
your new purchase and increase your enjoyment of sewing.
Using the Needle Threader
Raise the needle to its highest position. Pull down the needle threader knob as far as it will go. Turn the
knob in the direction of the arrow in the second illustration, then insert the Hook into the needle eye.
Lead the thread around the Guide and under the Hook. Turn the knob in the direction of the arrow in the
third illustration, drawing the thread loop through the needle. Pull the thread through the needle eye.

Troubleshooting Tips
Sewing over Thick Fabrics
Even though the HD-1000 loves all types of fabrics,
it’s important to keep in mind that when sewing on
thick fabrics like denim, that seams can become
very thick. It is important to keep the presser foot
level when sewing over these seams or uneven
surfaces.
Pro tip:
A quick fi x is to fold a scrap of fabric 2 - 3
times and put it behind the needle and underneath
the presser foot when you approach the seam or
hump in your fabric. This will help to level your foot
and keep your fabric feeding correctly.
The Thread Loops on the Underside or
Topside of the Fabric
Pro tip:
Problems with your seam are the opposite
of what you might think. If the thread is looping on
the underside of your seam, re-check the upper
threading on your machine. The thread may not be
correctly seated in the thread guides or has come
out of the Take Up lever.
Conversely, if the thread is looping on top, make
sure the bobbin thread is coming off the bobbin
counterclockwise and that the thread is securely
threaded in the bobbin tension guide.
Refer to page 30 in the instruction manual for more
information.
Machine or Needle is Jammed
Using scissors, carefully cut away thread above and
below your fabric. Gently pull the fabric away from
the presser foot area, while making slight turns on
the handwheel to raise the needle.
Inspect the needle to make sure it isn’t bent. If so,
replace it. Before re-threading the needle, turn the
handwheel toward you, making sure that there isn’t
any more thread or fabric in the feed dogs or in the
bobbin area.
Pro tip:
When you are done sewing a seam, make
sure that the needle is in the highest position
before you remove your fabric from the machine.
This will ensure that that the upper thread has
made a full rotation around the bobbin case,
preventing thread jams in the bobbin area.
Machine Won’t Turn On
Check to make sure that the cord is plugged into
the wall.
Check to make sure that the power cord is plugged
into the sewing machine.

The ideal straight stitch has threads locked
between two layers of fabric, as illustrated
(magnified to show detail). If you look at the
top and bottom of a seam, notice that there are
no gaps. Each stitch is smooth and even.
When adjusting the needle thread tension, the
higher the number, the tighter the needle
thread tension.
Results depend on:
- stiffness and thickness of the fabric
-number of fabric layers
-type of stitch

Before Using Your Sewing Machine
Before using your sewing machine for the first
time, place a waste fabric under the presser foot
and run the machine with thread for a few
minutes. Wipe away any oil which may appear.
For Your Safety
*While in operation, always keep your eyes on
the sewing area. Do not touch any moving
parts, such as the thread take-up lever,
handwheel or needle.
* Always turn off the power switch and unplug
from the power supply:

Controlling Sewing Speed
Sewing speed can be varied by the foot control.
The harder you press on the foot control, the
faster the machine runs.
Polarized plug
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade wider
than the other). To reduce the risk of an electric
shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not
modify the plug in any way.
