I was able to download a manual for the 600s and instructions for threading and bobbin winding for this model. Now to locate the parts.

I have a Touch & Sew 626 that I've had for years and I totally love that old machine. I truly like how the bobbin fills right in the machine and the fact it can be set up to chain stitch.
It takes 3 accessories to make it chain stitch. A slotted needleplate (slotted opposite of zz plate), a thread guide that inserts above the needle a way up and a bobbin cover plate. If you can't find a manual, I can scan the chain stitch portion of mine for you.
I actually have those 3 items in an acc. box. However, I need to clean the camstack. I have never removed and cleaned one, so that will be an experience.
