How do you thread a euro pro 382?

Here are the steps to thread a Euro-Pro 382 sewing machine:
  1. Raise the presser foot lever to release the tension discs.
  2. Place the thread spool on the spool pin and slide it to the right until it clicks into place.
  3. Pull the thread end from the spool and insert it through the thread guide located at the top of the machine.
  4. Pull the thread down through the tension discs, then wrap it around the bobbin winding tension disc located on the top left of the machine.
  5. Insert the thread end through one of the holes on the bobbin and push the bobbin onto the bobbin winding spindle.
  6. Push the bobbin winding spindle to the right to engage the winding mechanism. Hold the thread end and press the foot pedal to start winding the bobbin.
  7. When the bobbin is full, cut the thread and push the bobbin winding spindle back to the left.
  8. Remove the bobbin from the spindle and place it into the bobbin case.
  9. Hold the thread end and turn the handwheel towards you to raise the needle to its highest position.
  10. Pull the thread from the bobbin case and insert it through the thread guide located above the needle.
  11. Thread the needle from front to back and pull the thread out about 6 inches.
  12. Lower the presser foot lever to engage the tension discs and pull the thread towards the back of the machine.
  13. Hold the thread end and turn the handwheel towards you to take up the bobbin thread.
  14. Close the bobbin cover and you're ready to start sewing.

How to wind bobbin on a euro-pro 998a? Not sure where to put the tention wheel. Says to put it on the back of the machine but there is no place to put it.

If you mean the little bobbin stick, just push it to the back of the machine and this will disengage the wheel, then follow the diagram for your bobbin winding. :-)

It''s a SINGER sewing machine,,it's hand wheel run a slower and the next moment when i tried to sew a dress for me i found out dat it was'nt working well..i mean the hand wheel is stiff and not work but...

Has the clutch been disengaged to wind the bobbin? Pulling straight out on the handwheel on some machines will stop the needle from moving so that a bobbin can be attached and wound. If this is the case you simply push it straight back in. Also, on a computerized or electronic machine if the bobbin winding post is pushed right, the clutch will disengage. --Push it all the way left when you are done winding the bobbin to re-engage the clutch. If the problem is internal, like a slipped belt, you will need to have someone open up the machine to repair it. Hope you get it going again!

Euro-Pro Shark Model 384 - Bobbin winding spindle won't rotate

-Don't know exactly it looks like, but make sure you press the bobbin either back or forward to engage the spindle to be able to spin the bobbin.


Good luck

Euro pro model 9110 winding the bobbin

The engaging letter is the gadget where you place the bobbin. By pushing it to the right the machine disables the rest of the machine temporarily while you wind the bobbin.
