I'm feeling a little stupid. Sorry for the alarm.
that is tricky, I bought a FW on ebay and the girl said sewed really well and then when I got it the hook wasn't in the right place. :thumbdown: had to read the manual to get it going but works fine. There are alot of people who think their machines are broke because of that hook....glad you found it
Great relief, and a lesson learned. Well done for sorting it out.
