I also think that stop washer has the hook to go away from the machine, as shown in the
15-90 manual. It should fit in the numbered dial. I think that

I am so used to doing it, I had to go do it again to take a picture. I used crochet thread so it was thicker and easier to see. If you read #5 of the instructions, it says after through the check spring to tug the thread to bring it past the hook (notch) "D" then up to the take up. I actually was able to come down through the discs and then down around with thread off to the left so that it would go under "D" and then under the check spring before going up to the take up lever. It will look like this after either method.
