Members Hoowzer Posted August 5, 2019 Author Members Report Posted August 5, 2019 Quick update here. I shared the diagram with my mom on where she should spray WD40 on all moving parts. Per my conversation, she mentioned "a lot of gunk" came out of the machine and the wheel seems to be moving again. We'll continue to wait and then apply some machine oil and see what happens! Quote

Members Cascabel Posted August 6, 2019 Members Report Posted August 6, 2019 (edited) Check with Southeast Sewing Products, 228 Otley Dr.; Atlanta. I have dealt with them before. (a long time ago) They were very helpful. They have obsolete parts available. (800) 426-2246 If it is stuck, most likely something is jamming it, like a piece of broken needle or something similar. If that is the case all the "magic" lubricants in the world won't help. Don't force it !! Edited August 6, 2019 by Cascabel Quote
