Not a difficult machine to use at all. I hope you are good with pictures. On the spool case (what I call the can) is a pin at the top ( in the photos, my top finger is pointing at it); that pin, called the spring plunger, has a spring to it. This spring plunger may after long use fail to snap into place which means the can may not stay in place. Or if the pin is set too high make it difficult to get spool case in and out of race. This can be adjusted so don't worry. I do believe it was Nancy that I talk through here on this thread on fixing that. As Nancy stated just make sure you have all the parts.
