chiocciola Report post Posted July 20, 2015 Hi all guys, i have a problem with my machine. when i put an empty bobbin on the place where it charge sometimes it doesn't twist. If i help the bobbin to turn with my hand it works but only if don't stop to sew. Other times it works very well without do anything. i tried to unmount all the piece but i can't find anything broken and i don't know what to do but the problem is very annoying. Did it ever happen to you guys or do you have any idea of what i should check? thanks a lot Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Constabulary Report post Posted July 20, 2015 (edited) Bobbin winder wheel is touching the V-belt, right - if not move the winder closer to the V-belt. Or is it the bobbin not sitting tight enough in the spool pin - if so then widen the 2 prongs of the spool pin a little bit.

Troy Burch Report post Posted July 20, 2015 I had a problem with my 205 not winding even. It winded mostly on just one half of the bobbin. I simply tightened the drive belt and it went back to winding perfectly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shoepatcher Report post Posted July 21, 2015 I am confused. Is this when you are winding a bobbin or starting to sew with a new bobbin in the machine? glenn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trox Report post Posted July 22, 2015 This machine has an inbuilt bobbin winder and inside it you will find a black rubber O ring that perhaps need to be changed. It's been some time since I looked in to my own 267-373, I never had any trouble with it. But the winder is adjustable, if I remember it correctly. You will find the service manual in the download section https://www.duerkopp-adler.com/en/main/Support/downloads/index.html?action=search&prop0=%2Fcommons%2Fdownload%2Fpublic%2F267%2F&prop1= My machine came with an extra such black rubber O ring, so I guess it's a normal "wear" part. If the O ring is worn out it will be to small and will not make proper contact with the shaft, the result will be like yours. Check it out. Good luck!
