    visit their website & see if you can download or purchase a manual for it. we have a nice 'sewing center' where they work on most all machines & they will find manuals for a person if needed too- they are very helpful & friendly-
    you will need to locate the model & serial numbers to find the correct manual.

    Hope this works for you. Thread the thread from left to right through the needle. Does the image look like your machine? My Universal is a Model AZ-10.
