I have purchased the new Pfaff Passport 2.0. I plan to leave it at our lake place. I've noticed that the needle position isn't centered. When I do paper piecing, I have to jog the needle to the left about 3 "clicks" to center it. Of course this would cause a problem with proper seams, too. Does anyone else have this misalignment on their Passport? I'm thinking it can be adjusted as soon as I have the opportunity to take it in but I'm wondering if it is a common problem.

Did you set your stitch to #1? I had a Brother machine that was set in the left hand position at "turn on" and I needed to press the #1 stitch for the needle to be centered. Good luck.

Its probably the default needle setting, not all are set center

If you don't like it there ... can you change your default position, to the one you want?

I don't know your machine or brand, though I do know I was able to do that with my Janome, and can do so with my new Bernina.

Well, I sure don't understand why a default setting wouldn't be centered! Anyway, I have to move the needle as far to the left as it will go to get it "almost" centered. There's no way to re-set the default, so I think I'll ask the servicer to see if it can be adjusted. Otherwise, this is a great little machine!

The service tech person should be able to make an adjustment to center the needle. I had to have that done on my Pfaff 2054.

Adjusting the needle center position is fairly easily done - just take it in to the dealer and a tech can probably adjust it on the spot.

Did you solve the needle default issue? I too would want it to default to the center. How are you liking it now that you've had it a few month?
