thanks sharon. i removed the bobbin plate cover and found so much thread lint in there. but so far no thread jam. it seems like it never have been cleaned since it was bought. it's quite challenging to make the stuck parts move but it's a learning process for me. have not worked on this kind of a machine before.

awesome. thanks buddy. i gave it a good oil bath just now. will give the oil time to soak in and will check later. for some reason i can't unscrew the side plate harp cover. the single screw that is holding the cover plate on the left side of the head won't budge. it's totally stuck. i soaked it in oil and i will check later if it loosens. otherwise can i carefully put WD40 on the stubborn screw ?
