Looks like you have yours threaded correctly. Here are the steps in threading my machine. The top photo is the first and you thread through the groove in the top disc. Does yours have a similar groove? Then down and around the larger disk that is the upper tension pulley. Then down under the auxiliary hook, 3rd picture, and up to the take up, and back down at guide and then through needle left to right.
Monica, is that your Graybar? I'd like to see a picture of the machine. I almost bought a Graybar a while back -- I didn't buy it. Anyway, I found a Graybar at an antique shop in a small town near here -- passed it up -- then saw it on Craigslist last week. The Graybar had been $50 in the Antique shop but only $20 on Craigslist! Did you buy it?
