After replacing the the upper looper, the thread is not chaining and
it sounds like two parts are rubbing together inside machine

The user manual does not have instructions for setup / calibration.

We've tried a range of settings, but with no luck.

Can anyone please offer advice or provide a link to set-up
instructions for this machine

Thanks!

The best link is your local dealer/repair shop.

I agree. Looper timing is a matter of fractions of millimetres and
usually done these days with an electronic timing device

Not really a task for an untrained person. The advice Wayne and Kate give is
very good.
That said. here is my $.02
Think of the loopers as knitting needles.
The upper looper must pas a close as possible to the lower looper without
touching it and the point must pass through the scarf in the looper. It must
also pass the needle(s) sufficiently and at the correct height so as to
allow the needle threads to be caught in the looper thread.

Now pack it up and bring it to the repair shop.

If only we could clone Wayne and Ron so that everyone could have a
competent local repair shop.
