If the thread is lopy on the undrsde:
tighten the needle tension
check the needle for bent or burrs, put thread through the needle and pull back and forth by hand if the thread shreds, burr in needle, change needle
make sure thread is the same on top and in the bobbin are the same weight

I had a similar problem but found it only happened when I used plastic bobbins. I've been using metal bobbins and haven't had the problem again. Hope this helps.

There is a hidden lever that disables the feet from raising. Remove the extension table (http://sewandserge.com/machimages/MechanicalSewDia2.jpg) and and you'll see a lever recessed into to the left hand edge of the table. Move lever towards operator so it extends and feet will re-enable.

My machine did the same thing and I tried everything in the world short of buying a new one. But....with all that said, use some compressed air to blow out every part of the machine. You can use the canned compressed air you use on computer keyboards. After you blow out all the lent, try it again. What ended up happening, was the machine needed to be adjusted internally. This was an area that I couldn't touch. I'm handy too, I'm a women that does heating and air conditioning but I was helpless with my machine. Good luck!

Return the White product and purchase a Singer. I purchased a White 2308, had the same problem, repairman couldn't fix it, so I purchased a Singer and have had no problems.

I doubt White will let me return the machine since I purchased it some time ago and gave it as a Christmas gift to granddaughters 2008. So, I'm probably out the money I paid for a piece of junk, but I'd rather pay for a better machine and not be so frustrated.

Clean the bobbin case.... try this....All the best

Happy to help
Have a nice day!

I've just had this exact problem with my model 2037. The problem, according to 3 shops I've taken mine to, is that the shuttle hook (the metal piece that the bobbin sits in) is broken and needs replaced. Problem is, the piece is next to impossible to find.

Can you please tell me what brand name and model the machine? I need to determine how the needle is normally held in place and how you usually release the needle. I have a couple of ideas but having a little bit better picture of the needle holder will help me provide you the best solution. Thanks

Make sure your needle is in correctly. Check your threading again. If that does not work, remove throat plate, install new needle, turn hand wheel until needle is at its lowest position and observe if the hook is exactly behind the eye of the needle. If that is correct then you do not have threaded correctly. If it is not then the machine needs to be re-timed.

Adjusting bobbin tension is the same on all machines using the fall test. https://www.google.com/search?q=White+Sewing+Machine+2235.+How+to+adjust+the+bobbin+tension https://www.google.com/search?q=White+Sewing+Machine+W-2235+manual ..

Singer built many of the White sewing machines, including the 1710. The Singer support site, https://www.singer.com/support , has the manual available as a PDF. The current link to the manual is https://res.cloudinary.com/singer-sewing/image/upload/fl_attachment/Singer-Website-Library/outdated_product/1101_white-1710-x.pdf . If you prefer a print copy, you can order one from https://www.sewingpartsonline.com/products/instruction-manual-white-1710 , print it yourself or get it printed at any print shop (Kinko's, UPS Store, etc.). For the last option, take the PDF to the shop on a USB flash drive or submit it electronically. I hope this helps. Cindy Wells

is it getting electricity?is the power cord plugged into the machine correctly?

Question edited for clarity and remove repetition. This page of the manual and also Page 19. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/461841/White-1409-White.html?page=16#manual ..

Question edited for clarity. The switch button hides on the rear of the machine on the back of the Face Plate. Page 4/5 of the manual refers and is labelled '24'. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/706964/White-734.html?page=4&term=light&selected=1#manual ..

Question edited for clarity. Question moved from MISC to White. These are the two best parts sites and they don't list one. The best thing would be to contact them direct. I am led to believe that a Singer might fit.

Try this as a demonstration, most are under the needle, may have to remove the storage space first, pull forward, sideways or lift. You can just look for your make if not. https://youtu.be/xo3RLvjq1y0 Hope this tip helps.
