  • In this video I show you how to clean, oil, thread and maintain a sewing machine. I also explain the parts on the machine as I go along The one I am using is a juki , I talk about tension issues you can come across and how to correct the problem, I also talk about filling a spool and sometimes there are filling issues if the spool is just slightly too big .You can use the methods I use on all machines relating to tension issues its the same principle really , it really is quite easy when you know how.

    This is probably one of the best videos on the DDL8700! I've watched other videos and they were incorrect compared to your instruction! First, the store I bought my machine from told me that I never had to oil my machine, but just keep the pan filled and it will run forever. Watching your video, I realized I've got to get some oil and get busy oiling other parts. Second, I was having issues with my tension and the thread on the bottom was "railroading". As soon as I was done watching the your video through the tension part, I immediately went to my machine made some adjustments and BAM, all fixed!!!! I can't even tell you how excited and happy I am to have found your little channel! I've already subscribed and look forward to watching other videos. Thank you so very much from the USA!

      She’s actually doing that part wrong, probably due to experience with other machines. This machine has an oil pump so that it automatically oils all of the moving parts, not just the ones at the bottom. It’s a little funny as you can actually see little tubes going directly to the areas she’s wasting time oiling that carry oil there automatically. As she says in the video, over oiling can be just as bad as under oiling so I wouldn’t recommend adding any oil yourself the way she does in this video unless you personally know your oil pump has stopped working.

      Hi after reading your message, I have been and looked over my machine very thoroughly, yes there is one single tube that goes up to the top of the machine and I would like to thank you for bringing this to my attention, I don’t know how I missed that , there is nothing at all that oils the parts underneath the needle plate, I have had my machine for many years and touch wood had no major issues, I would still recommend oiling all the parts that I point out in the video because you can not see exactly where the tubes goes to X

    Thank you, I will use these instructions to clean and oil my machine.
    Regarding tension, one should check using the right size needle and threaded it right before changing tension, especially on the bobbin case.
    One can check the tension in the bobbin case by putting the bobbin in and hold the thread and see if it drops or not. A little nudge and it should drop a bit but stop.

    • @TinaBambina
      @TinaBambina  Před rokem

      Check to see if the machine is threaded right , the needle doesn’t play a part in the tension, threads and it been threaded right does and the bobbin case will slowing drop if you hold the thread and let it tyebbobbin case drop to your opposite hand but it won’t stop you just have to catch it in your hand x

    • @TinaBambina
      @TinaBambina  Před 3 lety +1

      No the stitch is nothing to do with the belt , firstly check that the machine is threaded correctly on top and underneath in the bobbin case , if the tension is loose on top as you sew then you need to tighten the screw on the bobbin case if the tension is loose underneath as your sewing then you need to tighten the upper tension disc , just remember always opposite so tension problem when the threading is all correct when the problem is on top it’s the tension underneath and when the problem is underneath then it’s the tension on top to adjust x

    I have an 8700 and it is a great machine. My question is when sewing with heavy polyester tread, large needle, and sunbrella canvas. My bobin adjust is very loose and the top tension is very very tight to get an "OK" stitch. The ultimate goal is to have upper and lower stitch look the same. I read that the bracket just above the upper tensioner can be moved left or right for heavier thread. Do you know what is actually happening when moving that to either side?

      @TinaBambina  Před 3 lety +1

      Hi ok there’s two screws on the piece you push forward for the bobbin to be pushed into place to start it filling ,check that these are tight first then check the long bottom bar that runs the full length of the side of the machine that sits underneath where the cotton runs before been wound onto the bobbin that all those screws are fully tighten if they are then you will need to contact the seller if it is still loose , hope this helps x

    Hi, just found your video and it's helped so much, thank you!! I have the Juki DDL 8100e but lower and raising my foot pedal seems really stiff, plus my knee lift doesn't seem to work unless my foot is lowered and then it will work fine. Do you have any tips on loosening this please? :)

      @TinaBambina  Před 3 lety +1

      Hi Amy
      If you have a new machine the knee lift does loosen over time , if it’s not new if you look under your machine and follow the knee lift bar there is a nut bolt that can be loosen , you can try this if you want it loosening off .

I am having problems with the fabric puckering,,esp. when its cotton fabric I use for piecing. I have the machine in great tension for adding the binding to my quilts,,,but am afraid to loosen it anymore. Is it the tension or the pressor foot the problem

      It would sew light leather easily it does struggle with very heavy fabric , I once put a new zip in a padded gilet and the needle Broke and bent the needle plate at the same time , I do love my machine and I did try to get a walking foot for it but you can not get them for this model, so I would recommend getting a juki but a model that you can get a walking foot for, it will make some jobs a lot easier.

    I have a question I have this exact model and when I press down on the peddle and I hear the machine about to sew it sounds like the motor is breathing a bit harder then im use to. It sounds similar to a generator but not nearly as loud, if the machine is sewing I cant hear it but when im sewing really slow and I can watch needle move slowly I can hear it clearly. Should this be something to be concerned about?

      Hi
      Obviously our models are the older ones and are noisy machines to start off with, these machines are work horses and are made to last, my machine has had a slightly different noise of late , I’ve gave it a good once over and I think it’s still a bit noisier but I’m not to concerned about it , it is working fine and still doing a great job , you can get new motors for the machine if you are quite concerned about the noise , the new ones are quite but to be fair the noise does not bother me.

      First make sure that the lead is fully plugged into the machine ,some time certain machines have in the hand turn wheel where you turn to put the needle either up or down make sure if your machine has this that it has been tighten if it’s loose then it won’t sew, check your manual for any other problems that may cause your machine not to work some times there also a button that you can press that will put your machine in a mode where the machine won’t run. Because you maybe doing some thing to your machine where you need it to be still I hope this helps let me know how you get on , if the machine is brand new it will be under warranty if you can’t get it to work if it second hand the plug may need a new fuse x
