    Is anyone having a promblem adjusting the knee lift or is it only me? When move it to the left more, after a while of sewing it goes back to normal. My dealer gave me a new one but it still does the same thing. I move it over and tighten it up, even had DH tighten it for me and it still happens. Am thinking of drilling a hole so the screw stays tight. I love my machine and think the option for the knee lift is great, just wish it worked.

    Haven't had that problem with mine.

    What I did do too (I read this hint somewhere) is cut a length of one of those pool noodle things and slice it along it's length and slip that over the 'handle' of knee lift. It makes the knee lift 'fatter' and therefore closer for your knee to reach. I find it works fine :)
