Can't Open Face Plate To Clear Jammed Thread.

My thread somehow got stuck in the front of the face plate. I think I need to open the face plate to get the thread out. In the meantime, I broke the thread leaving a piece in the face plate, but re-threaded the machine and can still sew.

Remove the two screws that hold the face plate on (one on back, one on side). I had the same problem and was able to remove a thread that was wrapped around a metal piece inside the machine with some tweezers.
