i use a pipe cleaner to get into the deep sections when cleaning( after taking out the bobbin case.) take my machine to the dealer every yr ,especially after he gave me the devil for not taking it regularly. the touch panel on my machine was getting hard to work.turns out lint can get into the back of your computer panel and mess it up.

Not so stupid! Mine was skipping stitches so I took it apart and was astounded by all of the lint in the feed dogs. I, however, had to take it to be serviced because somehow, the timing mechanism was thrown out of wack. When I got it back, it purred and, like you, my world was back on its axis!

I have my DH blow my machine with his air compressor. It's amazing how much stuff comes out. The repairman uses one when he cleans. Now I have a small one in my sewing room and I clean out lint after each heavy use. Not hard to use!
