Check out the manual for the White 2200 or 1927. One or both could be close enough to your model to be helpful. Machines generally didn't change a lot from model to model.
More than likely you are placing the thread in the wrong area of the tension control. The thread needs to be going between the two shiny, saucer shaped parts. Thread the machine and test the tension control with the foot up (should be loose thread). Test the tension with the foot down. The thread tension should be noticeably more tight. If it is very tight you may need to lower the tension. A good starting point is 3.
That control should be repairable. You could open it just to see if a wire has come loose and touching the other wire causing it to short. Dont loose the cord, you can use a generic controll but you need that cord.
Hi
You can download free manuals for mose Riccar machines here: http://www.riccar.com/help/manuals/
I looked for the 2108, but couldn't see it.
Have a look at the manual for the 2050, maybe it's similar to your machine? http://www.riccar.com/ftp/whitepapers/2050-Owners-Manual.pdf
If not, have a look at a few other manuals to see if there is one that better suits your machine.
Hope this helps!
