Thanks for posting this pic, although mine loads from the left side, vertically. Here is what I did....like in my Juki, which one would think loads the same, I loaded the bobbin in the case, pulled thread through the tension, etc. etc....then put bobbin case in the machine with the thread going away from me. When I tried to bring it up, the bobbin thread was all tangled in hook area of where the bobbin case goes into. Perhaps the thread tail needs to come toward me? It can only go one of 2 ways, I guess! lol
