Singer 29k 62

[Omer]

Good evening, just for the record I’m new here, I’m not sure if this is the right place to post this, but here goes

i just purchased a singer 29k 62, it was sewing with big hoops at the bottom so I played with the tension and it got better, but know I’m getting hoops on the top only, after sewing about 2 inches or moving the needle to the side while sewing

Not sure what you mean with moving the needle...

Loops on top or bottom is usually a tension problem or you have a problem with your thread path or parts that put tension to the thread.

Can you post some pictures of your machine and how you have threaded the machine? I´d also check the paddle shaped check spring on the needle bar if it is worn (grove of inside of the paddle end).

Guessing you already have a manual, if not I attach one here.

@Constabulary I think he means turning the presser foot to change directions?  Just a guess!

Yeah when turning the pressure foot while sewing
