Sewing Machine Not Picking Up the Bobbin Thread?

Sewing Machine Not Picking Up the Bobbin ThreadI am a new owner of a Graybar/Coronado sewing machine model RBR. I think I figured out how to thread it, but I cannot get the top thread to grab the bobbin thread and pull it through. The bobbin is not a drop in from top it is positioned from the side.

Be sure the bobbin is in the right direction. Most all these have a slit for the thread to be pulled thru. Also, hold the tab of the bobbin out as you put it in place, then allow it to fold down.

Thank you for your help the Bobbin does not have that typical handle that is pulled out. It have two small curved indents on the top. When i pull the thread the bobbin turns clock wise towards the from of the machine.

I will try again to see if I have it in the right direction.

Make sure you have not put the bobbin in backwards or upside down.
