Why should I get my machine serviced regularly?
Routine servicing of your sewing machine or overlocker can help prolong it's life and keep it working for longer.
Just like a car, servicing can pick up any issues that are starting to appear, especially as a machine gets older. Spotting these early can help prevent major issues later in a machines life.
How often should I have my machine serviced?
Use machine every day - service it yearly
Average domestic use - service every two years.
(Selected brands require services on their machines at regular times to keep the guarantee.)
What does a service include?
• Split bodywork and strip the machine
• Cleaning throughout the whole machine (not just the bobbin area)
• Oiling the whole machine (not just the bobbin area)
• Reset / check all timing points
• Resetting tension
• Assembling and testing
Plus where applicable
