The thread cutter keeps getting the hook assembly out of whack the best I understand from the repair guy. The cutter will lock up and then the whole machine will freeze. I got the machine when it first came out, maybe early 90's? It started locking up about two years ago. I have the service manual so may take out the thread cutter altogether.
