How do you thread a Handy Stitch machine?

RE: Threading a Handy Stitch Machine
Here is a link to some owners of this machine, perhaps if you emailed them, they could forward you the threading instructions.

I received a Handy Stitch as a gift and it had no instruction manual. I did finally figure out how to thread it (bobbin to hole on stationary thread guide, to tension control to metal ring just behind where needle goes into machine, to needle threaded back to front. I have no way of knowing if this is absolutely correct, but it worked and I did get a pretty, durable stitch. The stitch is a chain stitch and does pull out from the end of the stitching unless the thread is pulled to the back of the fabric. (08/05/2008)
