Machine Embroidery help and Information

Keeping a machine cleaned and oiled is the best way to ensure it runs properly. It also extends the life of your machine. I've often worked on machines that needed major repairs simply because they were not oiled properly

Lint can build up in several different places in and on an embroidery machine. It can work its way into moving parts and cause premature wear. Lint also can get sucked in by the machine fan and cover the electronic circuit boards, causing them to overheat
It is a good idea to clean your machine at least once a week either by blowing it clean or vacuuming it. You should cleanthe hook area, including any lint and grease buildup that accumulates on the hook. About once or twice a year, you should clean out the area where the electronic circuit boards are.

So if you keep your machine cleaned and oiled it should run smoothly with less problems
