  1. A bit of bungy cord works well.
  2. I am new, tonight, to this page. I have a 132K6 that has had a hissy fit and WILL NOT sew. In the absence of any detailed information I have made a few adjustments, which has taken the slack out of various bits, but now the thread breaks when I try to sew. Can't even get a stitch to see if the timing is in the right place because it breaks before I get a chance to see if it is working. I know everything you read says the hook has to be a certain distance above the eye of the needle, but before the machine threw it's toys out of the cot, the sweet point for timing was actually at the top of the cutout part of the needle. The "call a serviceman" option is not an option. Our last machine serviceman was a WW2 veteran who died several years ago with no apprentice. There are a few about who work on domestic machines but that's it. It's me and Dad and we've both pretty much run out of ideas and we have things we need to sew! Fortunately we have a second machine which will have to fill in the gap until we get the other one working again. But it only came out because it wasn't working very well. Any suggestions? By the way, thank you so much for the opportunity to download the 132k6 manual. I had a parts list, but at least this book should confirm I'm doing something right (or wrong)!
