When I wind a bobbin, it makes a screeching noise and the needle goes up and down as the bobbin winds. I believe I am missing a step but not sure what. Manual does says have on 0 but I don't know what this means.
On the right side is a big wheel and in the middle a smaller one. You need to unlock the smaller wheel so that the needle mechanism does not run when re-winding a bobbin. You need to use both hands to do it. Hold the bigger wheel and then loosen the inner wheel anti clock wise. Once you have finished loading your bobbin you need to tighten the inner wheel again for the machine to be fully functional again.
SOURCE: Singer 7444 won't wind the bobbin... please help...
I guess the machine was defective, i trade it to the new one, and the bobbin worked fine...
SOURCE: Bobbin is not winding correctly
slide plate may be worn - i had the same problem. try holding down the center of the bobbin with a pin while slide plate is in the winding position.
SOURCE: needle is moving when bobbin is winding & lights are flashing
Check the clutch at the knob on the right side of the machine, where you tighten it to sew & loosen it to wind a bobbin. It could be very loose and when you start to wind a bobbin, it tightens itself up.
