If you go to www.sewusa.com, you can type in your sewing machine type and model number. It will allow you to print off a free threading diagram. I hope this helps.

Go to this site to look at and download the manual for your Singer Fashion Mate 258 sewing machine.
Go to: singer.com/manuals
Near top of screen, it says support in big letters. There is a box under that.....put in your model number 258, then click red bar VIEW MANUALS.

It will open your manual on next page, where you can scroll down through the 52 page booklet. You can also save or print the whole booklet if you want to... for free. THREADING your machine starts on page 11. Have fun and Good Luck !!!!

This is a popular machine and there are several YouTube videos on the different functions of this model.
However, you should have a manual so you can have something to refer back to should you run into problems.
Here are some links that should provide you with free downloads for your 258 Singer.

I would recommend that you join one or two sewing forums, as these members seem to love to help sewers solve problems.

How do I thread the bobber on the bottom of Vogue Stitch model 535 Janome sewing machine? Where can I find a owner's manual?

I think there might be a piece of the bobber part missing, I'm not sure.

Be sure you are looking at the correct machine when you are searching for a manual as the picture of the machine is usually on the cover.
Here is a free manual to download and another (may be clearer?) for $4.99.

I did not see any information about this machine on Janome website but you can try contacting them for information (they may only give you information about your local area Janome sewing center).

As to the bobbin you may want to join this site as they provide help for all kinds of machines but they will probably want more pictures.

I bought this machine for $20.00 it really is cute, but I can't find anything on the internet. If I can thread the bobbin and the needle I will be good.

I am completely lost. Could you help me identify it.

Does anyone out there have an easy way to thread a self-threading sewing machine? I have a Singer #1748 and am having a really tough time trying to thread the needle with the self threader or even manually. Any help would be much appreciated.

Mahalo in advance.

I never use the self threader on my Singer, I think it is a royal pain. However, when I do have trouble getting the needle threaded, I grab a small piece of white paper and hold it in back of the needle.

That seems to make it easier.

Take a small piece of scotch tape and lay it sticky side up, pull your thread taunt across it and fold it over with the thread as near the fold as possible. Now, using your scissors, cut off the excess tape leaving a small sliver of the fold. Cut the end off at an angle and thread it through the needle then cut the taped end off. If you are still having trouble, prop you piece of paper behind the eye to make it easier to see.

I spray the end of the thread with hair spray and blow it dry. This stiffens it up just enough to make it go through the hole easier.

If no hair spray is available, spray starch works great too.

I recently acquired an older all metal sewing machine named Precision Sewing Machine Deluxe - Dressmaker. It has all the parts, but I don't know how to run the thread through the tension thing. I hope someone has one and can walk me through it. It's not like any I have seen before. Thank you in advance.

Hi! I put Precision sewing machine deluxe in Google and came up with these two, which, on their face didn't appear to be sales sites. I didn't look at them, but I hope they have the info you need, or maybe they could help you find it. Good luck, Happy Thanksgiving, and may God Bless you and yours. E

Hi Terry, it's Amie from Pinkpeas. This is quite a coincidence because I bought a machine at a yard sale last summer and finally got around to Googling and looking for a manual. I stumbled across this post. I cannot BELIEVE the odds of that.

How did this turn out for you? Did you get your machine working? I don't even know if mine is functional at all. I MUST talk to you about this when I see you next!
