Start with the model printed on the machine. A similar name is a lead, not an identity decision.
Copy the manufacturer, full model code and visible suffix. Keep punctuation and regional or edition labels for checking. You do not need to publish a serial number to search this reference.
Open the exact profile and read its identity and limitations. A shared manual can cover several models without making them identical. If a related model is not listed, we have not confirmed the relationship.
Compare the profile’s document title, edition and stated applicability with your machine. If a suffix or region is unresolved, keep that uncertainty before using a procedural or compatibility answer.
This answer describes insertion in the exact 44S record. It does not establish third-party bobbin equivalence.
With power off and the needle raised, insert the bobbin with its thread running counterclockwise, draw it through slit A and notch B, then replace the cover.
