Magical Singer Feet - not!

Since I have the day off, I decided I would try to figure out how to use the attachments that came with my new 1947 Singer. I'm having no luck at all. I started with the hemmer foot, which at least doesn't have any moving parts. All you have to do is feed the cloth into it. I cannot get it to work.

Is there anything more hateful than instruction books that say things like "hold it in a straight line and you will find it quite easy to make a perfect hem?" If I'm not finding it "quite easy" then I must be pretty stupid, huh?
