Members KeriHat Posted April 19, 2024 Author Members Report Posted April 19, 2024 Just to let everyone know, my machine is now sewing like a dream, thanks! I fixed the pin/post with loctite and a wee tap, thanks to @Northmount I swapped the tension springs from the new assembly that didn't fit for my old springs on the original assembly - thanks to @suzelle I followed this video on youtube which helped a lot, though not the same machine.
