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.
