singer sewing machine, model 4562?

I was given this machine today. It runs but both the needle thread and bobbin thread break after I sew about a foot. Any ideas? I tried to download a free manual but it would not. my email is tlvr_bsr at ya hoo com

sorry, i don't have an answer for you, but i do have a question. which needles do you use in your 4562? I was given this sewing machine and i find that style 2045 is too long of a needle. can you help me out?

Hello Wanda,
I think you may have the black apollo bobbin case, it should slide on quite easily but it sounds like the metal finger on the top right hand side that holds the bobbin case in is loose, make sure the screw is tight, when you have the bobbin case in push it with your thumb to the left and look at the gap that the thread passes through, there should be anough space for the thickest thread to pass through normall a number 40, if the gap is too wide the bobbin case will jump out. drivewithken@blueyonder.co.uk
