  • This is a tutorial to show you how to maintain, clean and oil your embroidery machine and also what to do if you have tension problems - either the tension will be too tight or too loose due to excess fluff in the tension plate of the rotary hook.

      I didn't see the oiling, just the cleaning of the inside with spirits. Did you clean with spirits, too, and then re-oil?

    My Babylock flourish 2 was making the most horrible rattling and squeaking sound. I literally tried EVERYTHING and was ready to take it to the shop. It's only 7 months old. Followed this tutorial and my machine is humming along nicely. Thank you so much!!!!!

    So helpful! Was wondering why my machine was squeaking so badly and it was the bobbin needing oiling! The manual or any info online doesn't have anything specific to embroidery machines so I'm grateful to have found your video. Thank you!

    Thanks for the tutorial! I love cleaning + oiling my vintage singer but didn't want to do any guesswork on this one because of the computerized parts. I will be bringing it to a technician though first because it has been sitting in my Aunt's house for a few years. Lovely Afrikaans accent by the way!

      Depends on how often you use it - if you haven't use it for a long time them it is preferable to oil it before you start embroider again.

    Brother really don't recommend oiling their embroidery machines, they advise you to take them to the authorized dealer to get them oiled

    • @annieliebenberg7693
      @annieliebenberg7693  5 років тому +12

      Hi Ms Dwana, I am a Brother dealer and that is the first thing I train my customers. This is nonsense - customers need to know how to maintain their machines. These are the only 2 places you are allowed to oil. If you take it in for its yearly service, the technician takes apart the machine completely and give it a proper oil on all necessary components.
