Evidently, you skippped over my post https://www.quiltingboard.com/8574632-post2.html on your other thread https://www.quiltingboard.com/vintag...e-t319490.html
If you download the pdf manual found at the top of the page at http://www.doubleveil.net/zssmp/expertbt.htm It is a 19MB file, but the threading diagram is on page 8 of that pdf. Winding the shuttle can be found starting on page 6 of the pdf

I got a Delta Rotary from a friend and didn't figure out how to thread it. Then I bought an Eldredge Two-Spool, and it came with a manual. The Delta threads the same as the Two-Spool. Very different from other machines. I hope you can find the directions to thread your machine, as I was very happy with how the Two-Spool sews. And I can wind my own spools with the machine. The bottom spool in the can is a wooden spool, but you need to find old spools of that size. I have almost a dozen of them now.
