Place it in the bobbin case this way. www.Singer-Featherweight.com -- Page 10 of 14 Hook the thread into the slot and back under the tension spring into the slot at the end of the tension spring. www.Singer-Featherweight.com -- Page 11 of 14 Be sure to leave enough thread hanging from the bobbin case so that the needle thread will catch it. www.Singer-Featherweight.com -- Page 12 of 14 Holding the thread in the left hand, turn the hand wheel towards you with your right hand - lowering the needle and thread, then raising it back up again. You should be able to somewhat feel it catch the bobbin thread below. Pull the thread with your left hand which will bring up the bobbin thread in a loop. www.Singer-Featherweight.com -- Page 13 of 14 Pull the bobbin thread out and let both threads go to the back of the presser foot as shown below.
