When I took my machine in for a sewing lesson she used a spray can of air to clean inside my machine. I may have to invest in one of those cans.
I was told that machines with a drop in bobbin never need to be oiled. Doesn't seem right to me but the book that came with it doesn't say anything about oil in the maintenance section.
My machine is the old fashioned one where you put the bobbin in front, and of course when not put in correctly keeps falling out, doesn't have self threading.....but it works really good now. I don't know about the drop in bobbin. I would think something needs oiled, but not sure.
