your not alone, Im glad you posted this because im not go at oiling also.But will try to get better.

Well, I'd call and ask the dealer, but I can't imagine that any machine with moving parts would NEVER need to be cleaned and oiled. Wouldn't every company get a hold of this technology and improved the world and their sales?

Thanks Linda. Maybe I should change my thinking to older machines that don't have the newest technology. Surely, I don't want to make anything worse for anyone, especially sewing enthuasists with new machines! I know how I'd feel if it happened to me that someone suggested something and I followed through only to discover that it made my life miserable.

I took a class on my new Babylock and I am glad I did because I would not have read the book and I would not have known to pull out the bobbin shuttle to put the drop of oil on the felt pad below. Don't feel bad. Now you know.

My one complaint about the manuals is that they sometimes are written so technically that I practically need a dictionary to figure out what is meant. Why do they use a $50 word, when a dime word will do?! lol

Thanks, JoanneS, I didn't even think of that, I was so frustrated!
I'll try it tomorrow. |

When researching where and how to oil my bernina Artista 180 it says I need to use rotary hook oil (mobil velocite # 10) It also said not to use normal sewing machine oil as it would gunk up the machine as the rotary hook oil is a lot finer(not sure if that is correct word)
So after thoroughly cleaning and taking apart the bobbin area I didnt oil it as i didnt have any of the rotary hook oil. My question therefore is to anyone who knows for sure do I need this special oil?? |
Dont be embarrassed....I dont think there is any mistake I haven't made AT LEAST once...sometimes repeatedly lol.
