Hi everyone;
I had some very kind help with manual translation from my recent German-speaking houseguests, and also from someone on this board.
I am posting here a few photos from my manual; Amelia, I hope this helps you with your threading. The photo of the threading diagram very clearly seems to indicate that the thread goes through the tiny hole on the end of the tension spring. This really does seem odd to me (and to others as well!) but please tell me if you agree with what the photo says?
I have also included a photo of the diagram of how to thread the bobbin out of the bobbin case; the little hook on the outside of the bobbin case is unlike any other machine I have ever seen.
Does this help you? I found that mostly, the manual was intuitive based on diagrams and other machines' traits; however, it is indeed a funky machine in its own way!
