Hello and it looks like to me if you pulled the metal bar to the left onto a straight stitch or it puts the needle into the middle and then turn the design lever over to the straight stitch, it will be in the middle. I don't know if that will work or not. It is a pretty machine and I love these old ones. the tension looks turned way up to a 10. I can't see it good, also I'm not sure, but, it looks when you pull the thread around the tension, go up to get the spring, then back down under the bar pointed down, then up to the take up bar and back down towards the needle. I think I'm just talking.lol too much.
