Thread a Euro Pro Shark Sewing Machine

While all sewing machines serve the same purpose of providing machine-quality construction to apparel and home fashions, they are not built the same. Sewing machine construction and functionality may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer and even across the different models a manufacturer produces. As a result, the threading mechanisms of sewing machines vary, making the threading process for each sewing machine on the market slightly different from each other. This guide will provide a basic instruction for threading a Euro Pro Shark Sewing Machine.
