Singer 7442 Instruction Manual page 18

THREADING THE BOBBIN THREAD
1. Raise the needle to its highest position by rotating the hand
wheel toward you.
2. Remove the bobbin cover plate by pushing the release button
to the right. Bobbin cover will pop up sufficiently to allow you
to remove the cover.
3. Insert the bobbin making sure the bobbin rotates counter-
clockwise when you pull the thread.
NOTE: This is a very important step as the bobbin can
become unthreaded and cause sewing problems if it
rotates clockwise.
4. Pull thread through the slot (A) and then to the left.
5. With a finger held gently on top of the bobbin, pull the thread
until it stops in slot (B). Then pull about 6" (15 cm) of thread
and lead it towards back of the machine under the presser
foot.
NOTE: This is also a very important step to assure the
bobbin thread does not slip out of position.
6. Replace the bobbin cover plate onto the needle plate.
