Sewing Machine Servicing
Why should I get my machine serviced regularly?
Routine servicing of your sewing machine or overlocker can help prolong it life and keep it working for longer.
Just like a car, servicing can pick up any issues that are starting to appear, especially as a machine gets older. Spotting these early can help prevent major issues later in a machines life.
How often should I have my machine serviced?
Use machine every day - service it yearly
Average domestic use - service every two years. Selected brands require services on their machines at regular times to keep the guarantee.
• Split bodywork and strip the machine
• Cleaning throughout the whole machine (not just the bobbin area)
• Oiling the whole machine (not just the bobbin area)
• Reset / check all timing points
• Resetting tension
• Assembling and testing
Plus where applicable
· Firmware/software updates
· Resetting stitch counter
· Resetting service programme
What does a service include?
Repairs and servicing work takes 7 - 10 days, subject to the availability of any parts and/or spares.
