Elna 6000: Wie oder wo kann man diese Nähmaschine ölen

Sat, 27 Jun 2026 23:45:02 -0700

In der Anleitung gibt es keinen Hinweis für das Ölen dieser Nähmaschine. Ich hatte sie vor einigen Jahren zum Service beim ursprünglichen Händler gebracht, leider gibt es diese Firma nicht mehr. Die Maschine geht etwas lauter als sonst, haben Sie einen Tip für mich? Beste Grüße M. H.

I found this spring laying loose in the bottom right of the machine when I took the plastic off to oil it. I cannot find it on any part diagrams. All functions seemed to be working before I oiled. Does anyone know where it goes?

Sewing Machine: SIRUBA HSP-6854 non riesco a far salire il filo della spolina

Wed, 17 Jun 2026 02:39:07 -0700

Salve a tutti,

Mi hanno dato questa macchina da cucire, ho seguito le istruzioni alla lettera e guardato due video ma non riesco a far salire il filo della bobina. Quando scendo con l'ago questo non riporta in su niente, e smontando il porta bobina mi sembra che l'ago quando è nella posizione più bassa sia lontano dal meccanismo a punta che dovrebbe prendere il filo e farlo girare intorno raccogliendo quello della spolina di sotto. Non capisco se sono io il problema o la macchina ha qualche problema, ho fatto due video e una foto in cui si vede la pozione dell'ago rispetto al gancio. Spero che qualcuno mi possa dare un aiuto, grazie!

Needle in the lowest position: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/enumD/...

Mi è stato detto che la macchina ha perso la sincronizzazione tra sopra e sotto e che l'ago rotante inferiore arriva troppo in ritardo rispetto all'ago. Ho provato a regolare il sopra e il sotto ma sembra che in qualsiasi posizione l'ago rotante colpisca l'ago superiore.
Ho fatto un piccolo video per far capire cosa intendo, qualsiasi suggerimento è apprezzato:

Brother CS6000i: It’s sewing in reverse and will not switch to forward

Wed, 13 May 2026 11:49:03 -0700

My Brother CS-6000i is sewing in reverse and will not switch back to forward sewing. I did an online chat with Brother (the manufacturer) but because it isn’t under warranty, they want me to join an on line service for $65 a month to chat with a technician. I have tried resetting to the factory defaults as described in another “online fix it” but it won’t reset either. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I don’t know how to fix it. It sews beautifully backwards!

Sewing Machine: Sewing machine jams only when shuttle/bobbin case is installed

Sun, 19 Apr 2026 10:33:51 -0700

My sewing machine jams as soon as I install the shuttle/bobbin case. The top rod (take-up lever) stops moving entirely when the shuttle is in place, but the machine runs smoothly when the shuttle is removed. I have cleaned out the lint and checked for basic jams, but the issue persists. Is this a shuttle timing issue or an alignment problem with the shuttle race? It is an Indian-style machine (similar to Usha/Singer manual models). Any advice on how to align the hook or reset the timing would be appreciated.

Sewing Machine: Smoke from the engine

Tue, 31 Mar 2026 14:17:48 -0700

Bernina Bernette 330 from the eighties, apparently in good shape.

Turning the wheel, the needle moved. I turned the engine on, light went on but the needle didn't move. After a couple of minutes, a buzzing noise and a whisp of white smoke. It smells like paper smoke. Is there something I can do?

The mechanism that makes the needle go up and down is jammed, it doesn’t go up and when I try to continue sewing the screen shows Lo.

Any idea why this could happen?

My Singer 2638 machine stitches a couple of times and then beeps and then stops. The handle is really hard to turn. I have opened it all up, cleaned out everything but not sure what gear might be bad? Or where to look?

Sewing Machine: Stuck bobbin, unable to remove

I have a Bernina 560, the bobbin and case is stuck in the machine. There is no lever on the right of the bobbin to quickly disassemble the bobbin closure. I have removed the top silver plate and tried different wheel positions. It’s stuck.
