I'm lost on this topic. What difference would it make if the pressure foot is up or down? It's the position of the needle when it comes time to threading that counts doesn't it? I can't imagine trying to thread it when the needle is down. I seriously think that your dealer is feeding you a line of BS. I got a lemon Bernina & the shop didn't want to stand behind it. Go over their heads & write to the president of the company. I don't care how good they say these machines are, they do make faulty ones too. Good luck
I am thinking I have a lemon. Been sewing for too many years on too many machines to be intimidated. The repairman/owner has told me twice that he is puzzled and indicated I may have a alternative solution.
