hah, me with my feeler gage on my old bedslinger with the paper. these feels, I know them well. 😂
Press in the left button on the bed, turn the wheel until it engages then you will see the stitch length numbers through the opening, release when desired length is reached.
The bobbin was inserted backwards, the thread should come off the left side of the top of the bobbin. The machine will sew however it is wrong and can cause birds nest under the hook. Ask me how I know.
Is this the HP 3655? does it cut steel?
Thanks Ann! I changed the thread using the knot method but I forgot that the knot wouldn’t fit through the needle. What putting a QR code for this video near the machine? I found the video via web search which took a while.
