On page 983, I posted a picture of my Richmond treadle sewing machine. I have the manual but it is somewhat unclear exactly how to thread the tension spring plate mechanism that is located on top of the machine---I think I've seen it referred to as a flyer-type tension, a vindex-type tension, and I'm pretty sure there was even a threading example shown somewhere but a search is not leading me to it. Can anyone with a similar machine help with some photos or tell me a page number to go back to? Thanks so much.
