I am new to community and hope I am not breaching any rules . I am just learning to sew and hope to advance to being able to make quilts in a reasonable period of time. Just dusted off a vintage machine from the 70's, a Dial and Sew Model 916SS. I made a simple costume for my granddaughter without problem. However, when I wanted to wind my bobbin with another color of thread, the winder would not turn.Tt was working when last used many years ago. I do not have a manual and have not been able to locate one. Does anyone have suggestions as to how I can fix the problem or, even more importantly, locate a manual?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
thanks
