You saved me $100 and 4 weeks of waiting at my local sewing machine repair shop! Your video was informative, entertaining, and had just the right amount of detail to get the job done. An hour ago I had no idea how the inside of a sewing machine worked. Now, thanks to your help, I have a better understanding of the device...and more importantly my sewing machine's timing is back on track! My daughter will be thrilled that her sewing machine works again. Thanks so much!

I feel so left out. So I undid the 4 screws in the back, the 5 on the bottom, and the one next to the tension wheel after I took off that side piece. I was not able to get the front and back apart without breaking something. Am I missing something? Was there another screw not mentioned that everybody else got but me? I'm trying to wait to hear back from Marcel, but I know he's busy...I'm lost and my rig has been sitting here for hours waiting to get fixed.

Give me a second I will make a video about this issue as well. There is a screw on the side of your machine that is not to be touched. The purpose of that screw is to move the top needle assembly toward you or further from you.

@giftshandmadebynatasha2985 3 года назад

I am not getting the bobbin tray to even move. The timing is off only miniscule, but enough to not catch the top tray. Your video shows how to lose the bolt to move said tray, but not how to move the tray. Manually moving it is having the needle dropping down at the same time. I am not understanding how to fix this.

Buy a soldering iron with some solder. Solder a screwdriver into the screw in order to remove each screw. You will have to solder and de solder the screw driver each time…that’s a lil painful process but it should remove those screws. Look It up online on how to solder

@MarcelJoel 3 года назад

Open it again, when you align the silver piece at the bottom with the top needle, I want you to manually operate the top needle to see from yourself if it picks the thread 🧵up without hitting the bobbing case. Keep adjusting the bobin case and the top needle until it does pick the thread 🧵 up like it supposed to.

@MarcelJoel Год назад

Did you fix the zig zag ? What did you adjust ?

@NANA-ge2xx Год назад

@@MarcelJoel After having checked the straight stitch that it works as you did with the sock, you must always check at the zig zag stitch, if the thread gets tangled or does not cling there is a disturbance, the adjustment is done at the needle bar, not at the hook. From that you make an adjustment you must check everything to also look if the feed teeth go up or down well at the same time as the needle goes up and down and does not touch the plate or the bobbin case. Although Brother make entry-level machines with affordable prices, disassembly, cleaning and access to make adjustments are easier, and users do not need to go to a technician and pay

@MarcelJoel Год назад

I am going to have to make a video showing details on how to take it apart ..if you remove all the screws and the knob , you can use a plastic pryer to go around the crack to unsnap the machine apart. If it doesn’t come off easy, you are missing a screw somewhere. Look carefully.

I have the same machine and the needle is hit on the metal teeth, what can I do to fix it

@MarcelJoel 3 года назад

Use a Philips screwdriver. While the machine is actually facing you , right on the back of the machine in order words on the other side of the top needle assembly, there is a single Philips screw there; If you screw it in or unscrew that actual screw , that would move the top needle assembly towards you or away from you. That’s exactly how you position that top needle assembly exactly where it needs to be, so it won’t hit those metal teeth.

@MarcelJoel 3 года назад

If you look at my video when I turn the machine around , there are screws on the side of the machine that I touch and there is one single screw that I didn’t touch , and that screw is close to the top needle assembly , that screw is the one that will move the assembly back and forth for you.

I need help how can i fix it when the pin was stock and not coming up again? Hope you can help me

@jannette0307 4 года назад

Followed your instructions. Got it aligned. But now the needle hits bottom of tray n it gets stuck 😡🙈. Any ideas on what to do next?

@MarcelJoel 4 года назад

Hey, go back into the machine , position the silver bottom piece aligned with the top needle and manually bring up that top needle a little bit and try it.

@MarcelJoel 4 года назад

Make sure to watch the Video all the way until the end. Because you have to tight your Allen screws back up.. don’t over tight them neither please.

@jannette0307 4 года назад

@@MarcelJoel i did. A few times 🙈. Got that part... but now its all shifted to the right n i cant get it back aligned 🙈

@MarcelJoel 4 года назад

There is a screw on the side of the machine that allows the top needles to move toward you or away from you . Use a Philips screw driver in order to move that needle the way you want it

@arthurforteza3912 3 года назад

Good day sir, I have done it already but the needle came in contact with that tny little metal rivet. My question sir, is that needle at timing position going down or up?

@MarcelJoel 3 года назад

arthur forteza What I would say is set it up in a such way that the needle doesn’t touch the metal rivet..you can spin the needle and the bobbing case manually and see what it is happening , and then you make adjustments.

@MarcelJoel 3 года назад

Did you watch the entire video until the end? Did you tighten back up these Allen screws after calibration ?

@LiyahMichelle 4 года назад

Hey do you retighten the bolts or leave them

@MarcelJoel 4 года назад

Liyah Michelle Yes you have to tighten back up the bolts right after the alignment of the top needle and the Silver piece on the bottom. I mentioned it at the end of the Video .

@LiyahMichelle 4 года назад

GENTILGARCON thank you

@MarcelJoel 4 года назад

Liyah Michelle did it work for you?

@LiyahMichelle 4 года назад

GENTILGARCON yes and no now the needle keeps hitting the nail

@MarcelJoel 4 года назад

Hitting the nail , you mean the silver piece inside the bobbin case? Open the machine again and align the silver piece and the needle again and try to raise that top needle up a little bit. Tight up your Allen screws back up and test it.

Turn it the oppose way to align the needle. Use the same screw to fix it..you can move the needle back to the original position by turn clockwise or counterclockwise 🔄.
