I recently was gifted a Frister-Rossmann hand crank sewing machine. and know nothing at all about it. I know that it cranks but wondered if anyone here can give me tips on how to thread it so I can see if it sews or how to put the bobbin in. Thanks a bunch!

You need to post a picture for us to identify the model number. Some of the quilting board mempers may have your model or very similar, but often it is all about searching up info on the web. There's lots of manuals and descriptions available on how to tackle it.

Lucky you!

Mickey is right a picture would help tremendously.

Some links to get started on (until known for sure which model you have):

Thanks everyone. I am still helping deal with the lady's estate stuff so will post picture in a few days when it is not surrounded by 'stuff'. You all are very helpful!

Hi SanyinZ4. I just got my f and R transverse shuttle running. If you bobbin is like this I may be able to help. sorry I don't have a shot of the full machine yet. sorry it is a bit fuzzy.

I've never heard of that machine but found this that might be of some help.

Will try and attach pictures and see if this helps identify it. I found the number 3777542 on the front. Also. a box of attachments came with it but not sure if they even go to it.
