Quick Start VideoUpdated 5 months ago

This video demonstrates the first steps to getting started: how to feed and thread your AK and DUO machines and other tufting basics. For more detailed instruction on how to thread or change the pile height on your AK-I, AK-II, or KRD-I machine, check out the articles on Low-pile Machines.

For users of the AK-III Cut- and Loop-pile Tufting Machine, check out our High-pile section. 

You can also visit the link to our showcase of videos demonstrating how to use and adjust the AK-I and AK-II tufting machines.  Please note this showcase is password protected. The PW is included in an e-mailed download link, and, in the printed materials included in your shipment.  If you are unable to locate it, please email us with your order number.  You must be a Tuft the World customer to access the showcase.
