    Duude...same! I have a similar machine except mine didnt come with the pedal or power cord but has the ports for it if you want to buy them separately... which is ridiculous. Almost as ridiculous as the on/off button found on the machine!
    Fyi....youre loading the bottom bobbin thread in incorrectly... you need to flip the bobbin over and load it in that way... the thread should be coming down from the right hand side of the bobbin not the left

      Its because your thread is getting snagged tangled underneath in the lower bobbin compartment.. this is almost always a thread quality issue which is something ive just recently learned due to trial and error after having troubleshoot for the same issue

      Hey. No need. Rather have a long thread before u start the next stitch line, so that it doesn’t draw back when you start stitching

    • @elaineison7674
      @elaineison7674 День назад

      No, you turn the hand wheel and put the needle into the fabric, lift the presser foot, turn your fabric, presser foot back down, sew an inch or so, and then repeat. It doesn't have a reverse, so you have to do your own 'reverse' stitch.
