Help need instructions for theading a Sears Kenmore Sewing machine model 158.14000. And also how to thread to wind a bobbin for the machine also.
All machines thread the same. TTN tension,take up, needle.
Beginning
with the spool, guide the thread through the thread guides to the
tension assembly. Pull the thread through the tension assembly and test
it to make sure the tension is working correctly.
(To do this
test,adjust your tension setting to normal or medium or 5 or something
in the middle. Raise the presser foot and pull the thread through the
tension. It should pull easily!! Lower the presser foot and pull the
thread. It should pull noticeably harder.) If it passes this test,
continue up through the take up lever,then down through the thread
guides to the needle. Make sure your needle is fully inserted and
turned the correct way.( If you load your bobbin case from the left
side,the needle rule is normally FLAT to the RIGHT is RIGHT. There are
some exceptions. If you have a newer style drop in bobbin or your
bobbin case loads in the front then the rule is FLAT to the BACK.
To wind the bobbin, guide the thread around the thread guide on
the left top of your machine, then to the bobbin winder. Wind the thread around the bobbin several times, place the bobbin on top of the bobbin winder, push it against the wheel and press the foot pedal. It should stop winding when the bobbin is full or you take your foot off the control

How do I thread the machine
I dont have an instruction book and this sewing machine is very different than all the rest. It is a big
Need machine threading instruction on model # 1580D
Anyone have a manual?
Bobbin thread will not pick up. The machine is clean not not out of tune.
Thread keeps breaking after threading
sews aprox. 1" then skips 3 or more stiches repeatedly
