The wheel seems to have two tiny headless screws that are not moving. I figured that they were holding the wheel in place to some extent. I never used a wheel puller. I wouldn't know how. Guess I better start reading up.

That could be the problem, but I would think the the wheel could be desingaged so you can wind bobbins and the needle would be stationary. Since I am not familiar with the Ruby I really don't know. Glenn
