JazzVinz Report post Posted February 7 Hello ! I just bought a Bonis A18. My grandfather was a furrier and I watched him a lot while working when I was a kid. While trying the machine, I saw it was skipping some stitches. When doing manual the 1st stitches were good and then only 1 / 2 or 3, and none with the electrical motor. I tried to change the thread but didn't change anything except I broke the needle (292 serie). I think my threading is good. I have found a way to buy new needles (bought 3 different sizes 16, 18 & 20, but doesn't know what size to chose...). I would like to know what can I do to fix the stitiching problem, if anybody as an idea Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Garyak Report post Posted February 12 Your needle isn’t set correctly, or even the wrong needle is installed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
