Welcome. I'm going to give you a bunch of links. Some of the links
in the threads about White machines here on QB don't work, but the links that are for other threads to other QB threads are good. As I was trying to gather them, I realized that quite possibly the direction that you are turning the hand wheel to draw up the bobbin is the opposite as to how Singer machines are turned. The hand wheel is turned away from you (clockwise as you are looking at the hand wheel). I know that both the threading of the needle thread and bobbin thread are a bit fiddly, so am including some image links. The flat of the needle is positioned on the right and threaded left to right.

A few pictures of threading - one of which is slightly different but still have the basic parts that need to be threaded correctly.

Then a couple of offsite web pages. I have read that removing the face plate is not generally recommended. One person took it off and couldn't get it back on here on QB, but there were no responses.

We like pictures. In order to post pictures on Quilting Board, you will probably need to reduce or compress the picture to a
file size that is smaller than 2MB. How to post images can be found at

Don't forget to scroll over to the far right to find and click on the "
Upload" button.
I have found that only the big red "Reply" button or "Quote" work to give me the paper clip icon to work for adding pictures.
