Champion Sewing Machine Adviced Needed

[Champion Sewing Machine Adviced Needed]

I read that these units used a kerosene heater to tighten tolerance. This unit didn't come with one. Was the heather really necessary for its operation?

Just got this champion sewing machine, oldie but a goodie. I am posting a few pics in hope that anyone that has one of these might notice any missing parts or out of alignment issues. I believe the awl is off center from the needle. If anyone has one of these guys running and sewing I appreciate any pics u can post.

Thanks for your response and taking the time to try to help. I have attached photos of the bobbin, shuttle, and needle in various positions in case I have made a mistake at any point along the way. I may be misunderstanding something basic. It's my first time using this type of machine and any and all help is greatly appreciated!

The second to last photo shows a place on the top of the machine which broke off. I am unsure how much this may be contributing to the problem as it seems that the spring was designed to help vary the tension on the needle thread.

Hello,

I have a Singer 29K51 sewing machine. Having loaded the bobbin, installed it in the shuttle, and closed the plate, I am having trouble getting the loop necessary for sewing which is created by the top thread and the bobbin thread. I have looked up pdf of the loading of the bobbin and shuttle and believe that I am doing it correctly. Can anyone give any trouble shooting suggestions? Thank you!
