First of all, the wire guide is held UNDERNEATH the needle clamp, and what you have to do is insert them back in one piece. That is, remove the clamp, insert the end of the guide, then push them together on the shaft as one unit. The end of the thread guide sticks up over the top of the clamp in the back. There is a very tiny screw there that's supposed to hold it, but most machines are produced without the end going underneath that screw-they just let the needle clamp hold it. That screw is VERY tiny and VERY difficult to access, and will come out completely after only a few turns. Worse yet, it serves as a 'stop' for the end of your needle, so if you lose it, you'll have to use something like a toothpick to 'stop' the end of the needle until you can replace it. ASK ME HOW I KNOW!
It is easier to deal with if you put the machine on its side when you do this. Sep 21, 2014. Take a look at page 6 of your user's manual. First, is important that your bobbin be unwinding in the correct direction (a picture is right on the machine as well). On all machines, the thread needs to be 'caught' in the area on the bobbin case at the bottom, so that it can exert tension on the bobbin thread.
The slot on your needle plate is most helpful in lining the thread up, but personally, I don't then put it in the thread cutter-I find that the thread is too short when I do that. I simply put it through the slot and lay it above that, and then bring the needle down to draw the thread up above the needle plate.

Sews like a dream with no issues. The monogramming part has me at my wits end. It skips stiches, leaves big loops an looks bad UNLESS i set threw it, stop, an back stitch every mess up.

Remove bobbin and turn tension screw about 1/8turn left (anticlockwise) check if still grabbing, if so - top thread turn about 1/4 turn (at embroidery ir should do automatically, but sometimes need kick.). Check if it is still grabbing on the bottom, do it grab during straight? Double zigzag?
