Hello

I own a 133k13 jumping foot.

I dont know how to set up the bobin to sew. Any help or manual available thank you.

 

Its to repair jute bags

I split this out into it's own topic so maybe we can get you some help. It looks like an interesting machine.

EDIT: In fact, a search for 133k13 turned up a few hits. I'll leave you to sort through them.

I guess you alreday have figured that is is a darning machine that ex factory is not set up for sewing operations.

I once owned 133K3 but it´s long gone. There it a Bobbin case positioning finger that holds the bobbin case in position. You see it in your picture (that part is the "bar" above the hook / bobbin case in your picture).

The top end of the bobbin case has to sit in the gap of the positioning finger (remove the needle plate and you have a better view on it and I think you will know what I mean when you see the gap). You only can insert and remove the bobbing case when the hook is in the right potion and you have to flip the bobbin case retainer aside before you can insert the bobbin case.

EDIT:
hope this helps

the 2 parts on the left are positioning fingers and you notice the gap, right?
