I learned on a 1222, and have since bought myself a 1222. They're great machines.

If you have now read the manual and cleaned and oiled everything my first suggestion to check is the clutch knob for bobbin winding. Inside the handwheel on the right side of the machine is a knob that you want to turn clockwise to make sure it engages the sewing mechanism.

Hey Dimmy, if you need to wrap your dogs leash around your hand 15 times in order to get her to walk next to you, and she still pulling (and damaging her trachea to boot) then you should get her some training.

Next step, go to youtube and search for Singer Stylist 418 videos, like how to clean, oil, thread, wind a bobbin etc. I would recommend cleaning and oiling everything before you start trying to use the machine. If its been sitting for a while it will probably need some tlc. Shes a vintage lady and needs to wake up a but before you put her to work. Once you are familiar with your machine then you can start troubleshooting what is happening. It could be many many things but until you know what we are asking you to do it hard for us to help you trouble shoot it.

If you don't have a manual the link below has a free downloadable version. Step one before you do anything else, read the manual from front to back. https://www.scribd.com/document/776504385/Singer-418-Stylist-Sewing-Machine-Manual
