When I pull the wheel towards me, the bobbin case rotates towards me pretty smoothly too. Only the top thread gets tangled around the bobbin and the bobbin case instead of picking up the bobbin thread. Gah.
Yup, it is rather frustrating! I hope to find a solution and to turn this machine into something I can use.
A FW threads from right to left. Be sure the flat side of the needle faces left.
