Brother 4234DT serger: threading the lower looper

Who would have known this wee puppy had a smirk on her little mug.((insert foreshadowing music))
She's ate 75% of my underthings. Yes, in all fairness she had a Havanese accomplice, but far be it from me to be unfair!
It has been a year & have quite the collection to repair. *ahem*
So! Back to the serger to repair my many lace lady-underthings. I swore I wouldn't lose so many precious danties.

Eghad! I was getting a flat forehead over threading the lower looper re threaded.
My husband was kind enough to get me some reading glasses at Rite Aid, staring at the manual, watching Youtube demos and simply.. Well.. Staring at the lower looper.

(Sorry Brother, as much as I love my brother sewing machine and serger, the manual is painful and small.
Ok! I rolled up my sleeves.  This thing wasn't going to conquer me!

Thread lower looper like this:

Push the mauve (purple for us simple folk) lever to the right.

It will jet out the lower looper enough to see an "envelope-v" shaped lip to thread around.  Then feed the remainder of the thread through the eye of the lower looper. Voila! I'm now pain free.
