When I turn the wheel by hand toward me, it is hitting something under the feed dogs. I have checked my instruction book over and over and tried different things and it still hangs up. I even had DH try and help. No luck. I appreciate your help. This thread is amazing. Thanks, Nancy O.
I have just gone through this with mine, and though most of the Singer bobbin cases are a piece of cake to reassemble, this one is a PITA. Here's the link that helped me; hope it helps you, too!!

Scroll down to page 6, and good luck!!
I just went to this site out of curiosity.....WOW....the work this organization does is wonderful...does anyone know if there is a US counterpart....think of the machines we could rescue and put back to work in a way that could change someones life for the better.....a new life for the people and the machines.....

Also a lot of great, free information about our older machines.....

Thanks for posting this site....
