Where can I get a Riccar reliant 53 user manual

Increase the top tension. It should pull up the bobbin thread into the fabric.

I could only find the Riccar REC6000 Owner Manual. I will try to find you a service and repair manual somewhere as well.

HI
Try finding a threading diagram in a manual for another riccar machine here.

I couldn't see a manual here for the Riccar Reliant 57 but there are ones for the RL570 etc.
Most machines by the same brand thread in the same way.
Hope this helps!

Have you tried the Riccar site?

I couldn't find one for your specific model number.
Have a look at a few of the manuals with similar model numbers. Or try to find a manual that most closely resembles your machine.
Usually sewing machines by the same brand are very similar and thread the same way etc.
Hope this helps!

Very unlikely you will get a manual for a Riccar, the only place with any hope would be www.sewusa.com
