I have no idea how they work; they seem to be so fragile that if you even look at it funny, it will break. That said, I can't give you any advice other than to check the manual that should've come with it (although the manual for mine is even more difficult to understand than the machine itself ). I feel your pain. |

| An Abnormal Default EC Moderator ![]() Gender: Female Orientation: Straight Out Status: As out as the next straight kid Location: Surrey, UK Age: 19 Posts: 4,103 Join Date: Sep 2008 | I'm recalling stuff from back when I was 12, so might not be right, but here goes:- I know you when you thread the bobbin, you slipped the little wheel of thread in and then the end of the thread went through the little hole in the arm of the bobbin casing. The bobbin case then clicks into place in the lower part of the machine. The tricky bit I found, least for me, was bringing the lower thread up to go over the plate. You had to hold the upper thread (which you wiggled all over the machine in a Z-shape then through the needle) to the side and slowly bring the needle down then up and, sometimes, the lower thread would be brought up. Other than that, I was oft flummoxed, so I can only suggest searching online for the manual? Type the machine make and number into Google and something should pop up.
