-Then I raise the pressure foot to release the tension, I bring the needles to the highest position by turning the hand wheel counter clockwise. Using an Allen key or another thin tool, I catch the needle threads underneath the pressure foot and I pull them forward gently till I have about 20 to 30 cm (8 to 12 inches). Then I cut the needle threads.

-Next I pull the fabric towards the left and slightly backwards to bring out the looper thread and I snip it the same length as the needle threads. Depending on the type of thread I am using, I may encounter a bit of resistance. That is normal and a good tug will help to release the threads. Here is what it looks like when the needle threads are being pulled towards the wrong side. The threads in front of the pressure foot have been snipped and to the left you can see the turquoise and red needle threads being pulled through to the wrong side.
