It 'could' have thread wound inside. That
s what I tho't was wrong w/my Babylock, but dealer said it needed new lower shaft gear...said not made anymore. Well, I searched and found one for $75 new, and waiting for the machine to die before having it installed. It has been 3 yrs now and still chugging along. Wheel is still tight but I handle it. Hope yours just needs oil!
OH, just wondering if you have service manual to guide you how to take the wheel off to ck ?
