In 1980 I went to a garage sale & bought a 1960 Singer. It looks just like yours. I used it for every thing until about 8 years ago. DD has it now. She lives in FL. She doesn't know how to thread it so she hasn't used it in a few years. When she lived at home she didn't want to learn from me. Now she has children & wants to learn but we're separated by half the country.
Yeah, the threading is different from my other machine. It's going to be fun to remember which is which. Left to right or right to left. The 15-91 is right to left. As you face it, use your right hand to hold the thread. My Electro Grand is left to right, using left hand to hold the thread. I found a free online manual showing the threading path.

This one is almost the same as the one I learned to sew on. Very nice machine. Easy to use and maintain.
