Members Constabulary Posted November 17, 2017 Members Report Posted November 17, 2017 I´d check the needle hight and the the needle hook timing.

I do size 18 for bonded 69. In my experience the thread can get hung up on a size 16 and not loop correctly at the hook. Quote
Members Ogoki Posted November 19, 2017 Members Report Posted November 19, 2017 Is it perhaps a "flagging" issue? That is to say, as the presser foot climbs onto the seam, is it no longer holding down the material before the seam, allowing it to lift and miss a stitch? In this case a height compensation tool would help. Quote Seiko PW-27B, Mitsubishi DN-260, Singer 95K43, Champion 77 McKay stitcher, Champion 55 outsole stitcher
