Are you sure you have it threaded properly? Some of the guides are closed holes you sort of snap the thread into, and the thread should be snug between the tension disks in the tensioner... it won't form good stitches, otherwise. I have a 66-1, but get to treadling *like the wind!* and never have had the thread bounce out of any thread guides. Interested to see what others say...
