Necchi 3101 Mechanical Sewing Machine

Wire thread guide placement

posted by barb2 on Sep 02, 2007


I just received my mothers Necchi 3101FA machine. The wire thread guide attached to the tension knob seems like it is out of place. If I sit at the machine the wire bends towards me but there is a tiny hook on the end. Is that hook supposed to somehow be attached on or into the tention knob.

Thanks

Hello barb2,
Have you taken the tension dial off at any time?
the only reason the spring will be partway off is if the tension has been taken off, do you have a loop on the end of the spring that is on the end?
