    The only consequence of over-oiling a manually oiled sewing machine is dripping oil. If you are sewing black bridle leather the oil has no effect. Otherwise, keep a cloth or paper towel under the feet and needle to absorb the oil dripping down the needle bar. Wipe oil off the presser bar that is visible under the head. Wipe dripping oil where you see it, but leave the rest inside the machine.

    I have oiled everything that moves - that I can see - plus the "red dot" places. Do I need to unscrew anything to get to the "hook system" etc. I'm thinking that needs to be oiled somehow - (just put a little where it moves?).

    Is there a video available somewhere to help novices like me?

    Thanks for your help - you guys are all awesome!!!!!

    Since we are talking oil.... When you oil the red dot spots... are you just putting a drop in the hole or are you using the oil container's long tube to get into the hole to where you touch a shaft to put the drop there? Also, how often are we doing the "full oil" vs. the red dot oil?

    I use the long tube when I do the "red dot" oiling. Don't know anything about the "full oil"..............any info would be welcome!

    I have only been doing the "red dot oil". What does the "full oil" entail?
