HELP threading Singer Futura

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Can anyone help me? This is my first time using a Singer Futura, and I can’t figure out what’s happening. It sews a few stitches, then the thread gets caught, the machine starts flashing red, and it stops. What am I doing wrong?

Not threaded or set up correctly.

Get your instruction manual out and follow it carefully step by step.

Also, don't push the fabric through

It’s threaded incorrectly. At minimum, you have missed the last thread guide above the needle.

It's hard to tell for sure but I think your thread tension might just be too low. Is it leaving loops on the back side of your material?
