Shark Sewing Machine by Euro-pro Manual?

Question

I just bought a shark sewing machine, and the manual doesn't make any sense.
If it matters, the product # is 998a ( I tried searching with the number on the main site, but it says product not found that is why Iam asking here )

Here is the problem
When I sew with the machine, it messes up 5 seconds after all the time.
I think the problem is me setting up the sewing machine.

There are 2 metal bobbins, one at the top and one at the bottom

I just place the metal bobbin in the bottom and i set up the top metal bobbin and I start the machine. Do I need to connect the strings or anything?
I felt that I did something wrong right there.


Let me know please!

Thank you!

Answer 1

Yes you do have to connect them. I have the same machine! just re-read the manual under "Threading the needle" and "Drawing up the bobbin thread". It took me a while to get it too.

Answer 2

Make sure the pedal is plugged in/attached to the sewing machine, and that the machine is plugged in. I bought a Europro a couple of years ago and sent it back; it came with three sentences of instructions, and I never could get the automatic needle threader to work. There should be warranty information that came with the machine, and an 800 number for you to call for help.
