Automatic Needle Threader
ILC Reference NO 71:23:002
Item sourced from ILC VIC database
Short Description
A free standing red plastic needle threader with a black needle holder positioned at one end and a white needle holder at the other. Large needles are placed into the black holder and small needles into the white holder. Thread is placed in the recess adjacent to the appropriate holder and a white button at the front of the threader is pushed forward to engage thread into needle eye.
More Details
Method of use:
Place the needle in special duct with the pointed end directed upwards. Position thread along the base of the groove, so that it is short at one end and long at the other.
Slide the knob across completely and slowly, so as to avoid breaking the thin plate.
Release the knob and pull the discharged thread until the short end comes out.
When removing the threaded needle, hold on to it at the eye to avoid unthreading.
Factors to Consider
Makes threading sewing needles so quick and easy, that even the partially sighted, one handed or those with shaky hands can now thread a needle every time.
Maintenance
Refer to the supplier and manufacturer manual for maintenance instructions and safety warnings.
Standards
