The manual for the model 24 available at singer.com is for the manual tension version. This one has an automatic tension. A manual or threading diagram would be greatly appreciated.
Here you go. First, qualities of all the 24s can be found here:

I have two manuals; the first is one I found online; it has your thread takeup above the needlebar and is available here:

The second manual is one I just scanned; it has the automatic tension. Between the two, I think you can figure out your machine!
The only problem is, despite my chopping my scan down under the max file size for a pdf (<5 MB), uploading it keeps failing. I'd be happy to email it to anyone, just send me a message to that effect.
