jljack,
The little wire on your machine is NOT wrong. I have two and both of them are that way. There is more than one style of spring. Here is a picture of my HOTHER threaded correctly with red thread.
To thread the machine:
The thread from the spool goes to the thread guide on the back side of the face plate
Then down to the
outside of the tensioner
Under the bottom of the tensioner then up and over the outside of the curved thread guide
Then under the bottom of the thead spring
From the spring up to the
outside of the thread take-up lever
Then from the take-up lever down to the faceplate guide
Then to the guide on the needle arm
Then to the needle from the outside in, left to right as you're facing the machine.
I hope this helps.
Joe
