H G Palmer Sewing Machine

Described by some as looking like something Buddy Holly would drive the H G Palmer metallic blue sewing machine made in Sydney NSW is an object of beauty and weighs a ton.  I bought this today at a Salvos Store, it was irresistible. It came with a jar of old sylko cotton reels.

    I've just come across this. I have exactly the same machine and cannot figure out how to thread it. Do you know? I figure that with over 2 yrs gone by you may have found out how. Would you please let me know how to thread it.
    Thanks heaps

      Sorry I sold this machine a few years ago without ever using it. Maybe ask the question in google.
