Tighten screw on your machine
Machine Will Not Sew. I Cannot Turn the Hand Wheel
If you find that your machine is stuck chances are that there is a thread or something stuck in the bobbin
race. This happens from time to time when the bobbin area has lint build up or thread is not pulled up by
the take up arm.
Step 1: Turn the power off
Step 2: At the back of the machine grip the hand wheel and turn
to release the item stuck in the bobbin race.
Normal sew rotation if you are standing at the back of the machine
looking at the hand wheel is counter clockwise. If you turn the
machine counter clockwise you will force what ever is jamming the
machine deeper into the bobbin race.
Step 3: Rotate the hand wheel clockwise to back the jam out of
the bobbin race. (This may take some work to get it worked free.)
Step 4: Normally when you get it backed up it will fall out and you
will be able to make a full rotation with the hand wheel.
Once it feels free take the needle plate off the machine and give it
a good cleaning in the bobbin area. Prior to putting the needle
plate back on rotate the hand wheel counter clockwise (normal
machine rotation)
While rotating the hand wheel by hand ensure that you have free
movement of the machine. If everything is working well you can
put the needle plate back on and put the belt guard back on, You
will be ready to start quilting again.
