ENJOY!
Joseph, thanks for the fantastic video. Very detailed and easy to follow when I need to do it.
Thank you Joseph. great video. Did everything you did. Awesome.
Great Job! learned a few things from watching you. hope you do more.
Thank you! Its a great tutorial!
Great video!
Thank you Joseph
thanks 😊sir for sharing this kind of video..😊😊
awesome video thanks... i have a lever arm that keeps dropping and i can't do the colour change... any ideas what might be causing that? It kind of looks like the levers have lost their "stay up tension" and just drop down when the colour change moves from needle to needle, then it locks and jams
hi Joseph thanks to show us how to do it
Hi ...very nice videos
Great video! I think I can do it now! I'm assuming that since I only have a 12 needle, I'd be lining up needle 12 rather than 15.......
Correct Sue 😀
Great video. I have a Futong 15 needle that is 100 degrees out. At 100 the take up lever is engaged but at 0 it is even and the head will move. The machine will not start to function until it goes to 110 and then the head will not move. I cant find any info on Futong. Thanks
Do you have a video on how to install the Cap Driver on this machine? Not the quick change one but the that screws into machine?
hi i was just using my swf 601c machine i went for lunch when i get back to work i turn the machine on it start working but the needle wont come down to the fabric could you help.
Good afternoon Joseph, I hope you are well. I was wondering whether you have a tutorial in replacing the Wiper Arm on a SWF single head embroidery machine. Its a 15 colour machine. The machine is a T1201C - Your help would be greatly appreciated if you have any info on how to do this please?
Hi, what is an automat error thanks and could we see how to change the battery for the memory please
Thanks that worked....One more quick question...I changed the recipcator and sews great...However it's not catching on all the needles...What could cause this....
Brent Bishop there's 2 main reasons for your Needle not to catch. your reciprocator is damaged or your Needle bar height is incorrect due to worn or broken Needle bar rubber cushions or Needle bar height is off.
Check to see if all the needle bars are even from the bottom. Most likely the ones that are not catching are more higher than the ones that are catching. Give me a call and I'll walk you though some things to look for.

Great video. Please send the link for "how to check the potentiometer(6:22)"
Great video and easy to follow. do you have any on head shaft timing?
Edward Best what type of adjustments are you looking to do on the head shaft?
Thanks for your quick response Joseph. This is to do with the timing belt that is on main shaft and head shaft.Should the belt be timed at 100 degrees with the needles at Top Dead Center?
Here are some helpful Degrees when troubleshooting your machine:
Lowest Needle Position: 178-180 Degrees
Top Dead Point: 0 Degrees
Hook timing: 201-203 Degrees
Whenever the machine stops, the home position should always be at 100 Degrees (Encoder triggers at 100 Degrees)
Thank you so much Joseph. I was able to install the timing belt on our two head machine using the information given above. The machine is working well. I now have a deeper, better understanding of that aspect of repairs. Once again, thanks and blessings on you.
I apprciate this video, but sure could use a video on the wiper blade staying in down position.
As would I.
nice

Do you still give advice on this machine
I was wondering if you could tell me how to fix a pantograph that won't move left and right correctly on a Renaissance Cantare. Thank you
gvenglar Feel free to email me information about your unit and I can troubleshoot with you and steer you in the right direction. You can reach me at joseph@abcsewingmachine.com
hi please help me with my swf 601c compact machine there is no lights on the control panel and a constant beep machine same like the one in video
Hi I'm about to buy this same model how is it and can you get the cap frame for it and as it's old can I still operate it and link it to my laptop ? He said it's floppy disc
Hi I have a e-1501C and when I add the cap driver and trace the Y-axis is malfunctioning. I am getting error 202 where irregular signal is detected. Without the cap driver the machine works and embroiders fine. Please is there anything you can think of?
Hi Zack,
There is a support bar on the bottom of your hook arm that supports the cap. I want to say that the bar is not aligned with the sitting position of the cap driver.
1- Install the Cap Driver and center your needle to the middle of the wing plates (They hover over your needle plate)
2- Loosen the 3 Alan screws that are around that support bar
3- Move the frame forward and back to get the cap driver more centered with the support bar and then tighten the screws.
4- If this does not release some of the strain then send me pictures and your phone number so I can see what could be going on: joseph@abcsewingmachine.com

Hi Joseph! Can you up a video opening a ricoma embroidery machine mt series ?
Hi Eva. Unfortunately not familiar with the Ricoma but most embroidery machines have very similar designs on removing the head. Same parts just different screw placement. I'm sure it would be very similar.
@@ABCSewingMachineInc hi abc sewing ! Thank you sonmucj for answer!! If i send you a photo with email you can say me what to have to remove? I have two needles in my ricoma not working because touch a hoop in a work ! My ricoma is ricoma 1201 tc
I put my head back on and forgot which one I took it off on...I hit needle 1 now and it goes to six....how can I set the potential meter get it back to one....
Brent Bishop it is more difficult to set your potentiometer. Turn on machine and take note of what Needle the screen says your on. For example if Needle 1 is shown on screen but you're on 6 then take off Head and put it on 1 without turning the color change wheel while Head is off.
Have SWF 1204 A-UK emb. machine Got error message. "103 Triming system return error massage.
Hello Sir!
per our phone conversation the 103 error is caused by the Thread Trimmer Bracket in the back. First check if the thread trim return sensor is working. If so, then you need to check to see if there is any bind mechanically on the machine that is preventing the trim bar from moving smoothly.
Binding areas: 1 or more moving knives are too tight causing the bar to stop before reaching home position.
The White Plastic Stopper behind head 4 is misaligned.
The sensor block is hitting the sensor
The knife CAM is in the wrong position
These are typically the main reasons that cause the 103 error
is it a good idea to do this in oil greasing maintenance
Emanuel Colon yes it is necessary to get to the take up cam and grease it
THIS MAKES ME ANGRY because the people that would do maintenance never offered never said anything about this. how about parts can i get parts from your company
Emanuel Colon yes you can purchase parts from my company. give me model number and I'll send you parts book.
thanx address is 6107 kilmer st cheverly ,maryland 20785
no prices on your list
Hi my swf is not going back in the needle position the know is not moving
Joseph ..why would my machine be giving code 600...I changed floppy still didn't work...thanks
Brent Bishop there's a few reasons for that.
1. Make sure to format your floppy disk to FAT.
2. your floppy driver may not be good
3. cable for floppy driver is not good.
Have you ever had any luck getting these machines off floppy drives?
I am facing an error ac line error on swf model sb kindly some one told me how to fix it
The AC Line error could be caused by a number of issues. 1st thing is the test the input power going into the machine from your outlet. The first thing to check would be the power supply, SMPS, Power Board and make sure that the electric line is producing the correct voltage. Next would be the transformer on the machine and make sure the connections are properly connected.
Hi Joseph, I am desperate. I need to adjust the cam on one of my embroidery machine. Where can I get info on how to do that in a single head, 15 needle, color change cam?. I did look for utube video but could not find one. Thanks. Vilma
Vilma Anderson what issues are you having where you have to adjust the color cam? Feel free to call me 213-278-2353
hi needle 3 on my machine is registering thread break stop and there is no thread break help.
glenford holder first you have to filter out the basics.
1. Check threading on that needle.
2. Make sure thread break sensor wheel is threaded properly
3. Check if all needles are causing false thread breaks or if it happens only on a few needles .
3a. If all needles causing false thread breaks then it may be the thread sensor circuit board, or ribbon cable.
3b. If only a few needles causing false thread breaks then check condition of head ribbon cable or replace it.
4. Check your thread break sensor setting. If you have a BT1501C then go to Machine then emb settings and increase thread break sensor higher to 4- 6.
If you have an ET1501C then goto settings, emb setting then change thread break sensor to 4-6.
If that doesn't work then call me and I'll help you troubleshoot the issues.
hi all the other needles are working fine just needle 3 registering thread break and there is no thread break i rethread the machine several times same issue.
i have a 601c
glenford holder you will want to change out the head ribbon cable if you went through all the basics.
You can also check the thread break board and make sure the wheel for needle 3 is not damaged.
ok i have done the process yet i will let you know thanks

I am facing an error ac line error on swf model sb kindly suggest me how to fix it
I can't get error 300 to go off:"(. Can someone help me please???
Go ahead and email me your contact information and I'll walk you through a few things. Joseph@abcsewingmachine.com
hi.. how can
Error 300 - There is a half turn sensor that controls whether your needle is centered with the needle plate hole. You need to find the center point by turning the silver knob behind head 1 on the right side. You need to manually turn the knob SLOWLY until the error goes away. There is a split second of a delay so turn a little bit, then stop, then turn a little bit and stop until the error goes away. Once error goes away, hit the number keypad to automatically change needles. If the needle changes automatically then it should find the center point unless your sensor position is off.
Most people turn and keep turning before the alarm has time to go away so make sure to be patient and move little by little.
