I like those machines, they look durable. Thanks so much for this video. I have watched so many trying to find just what you explained so well. The video quality and close-up shots are spot on. Using the screwdriver to point out needle and eye hook proximity to one another with a close up view helped tremendously too. All the other videos I watched did not show or tell me exactly what the hook part was, they only vaguely pointed at the whole part. I now know what part is the hook, and that the scarf is the flat part on back of needle just above the eye... and I know where to line them up together because I could SEE it! (claps gleefully)
This was a really big help. I did not trust my skill level to fix my machine, but I managed to get it working again. Yeah. Thanks for a really good video.
Very helpful video! I watched this a long time ago when I got my machine, but today had a needle strike (first one) and boogered up the scarf on the shuttle hook. Took me 3 more needles before I figured it out. Cleaned up the hook and checked the timings. Running great again and onto the next part of the project! Thanks!
My machine got out of adjustment after contacting a carbon fiber rod in a kite (while sewing manually...). The needle bar got out of adjustment and this video made it very easy to correct - and I'm back up and sewing!
Now I know how to fix it, very useful video, thank you, I was just about to take it apart from behind the bovine to see if it was something out of place but with your knowledge something chage,
Thank you so much for making this video. I had a problem about the hook timing. I looked for many discussions and videos but only your video helped me ^^ Now I can sew again!
My machine was sewing great. I was sewing masks, scrub caps , bags and gowns for our local hospital .Then all of a sudden the needle hits the hook mechanism underneath. How do I fix this .
@@maberyall9152 I just opened the case of the sewing machine then tried to adjust the height of the needle to make sure the timing is right. If your machine keep missing stiches, you shoul try this method. My sewing needle broken and the problem happened.
Yvette Dinh thanks for answering. My machine won’ t pick up the bobbin thread. The piece in the bobbin casing is very loose so if I try to raise or lower the needle it hits the casing and bends the needle. Not sure what to do. It’s $50.00 just to have it looked at.
@@maberyall9152 I looked at the right timing for sewing machine then I tried to find the height of the needles. It will take sometime to figure out. Don't turn on the machine when you do that. Turn it off and use the wheel to test the result. Hope the video helps you. My English is not good at all. ^^
I successfully lowered the needle height but seem to have knocked it off center . The whole thing skews left. Sews fine set at R but sews to the left. I can see that the bar that adjusts centering is in line with the cushion screw I used to adjust needle height but I can’t manipulate it with that screw loosened. Help!
Please email us at info@support.com and we will start a support case to get help. NOTE: It must be a Sailrite Sewing Machine or help will not be offered.
I have never done that (move the needle bar back or forward) so I am not sure. You can email this question to support@sailrite.com and a sewing machine tech will contact you if this is possible.
Hello i have so much trouble with this sewing machine. At the biginning when i just have the machine for the first saw. The needle barr comme down. I want to talk at someone, in French will be the best. Maybe you will give me an answer by youtube because you don t give me answer by the webside .Thanks you . I need help. I am professionnal I never get trouble like this with a new machine.
We will be glad to help solve this issue if it is a Sailrite Sewing Machine. I will personally enter a support case for you so our sewing machine technicians can contact you. Please email me at ericg@sailrite.com also include the serial number of the sewing machine in your email. Looking forward to hearing from you soon!
If this is a Sailrite Sewing Machine get in-depth help by emailing: info@sailrite.com and we will assign a sewing machine tech to help you resolve any issues. A bending needle happens usually when the operator turns corners very sharply while sewing or when in a stopped position with the needle buried only slightly in the fabric. In those cases the needle enters that fabric at an angle and as it travels downward it becomes bent even more and then it hits the cap spring or the hook. So, when turning a corner, in a stoped position, bury the needle to the deep part of the shaft and this can be avoided. This can also happen when switching from zig-zag and straight stitch with the needle buried in the fabric or when moving from or to reverse in a stopped position with the needle buried. Avoiding these situations will greatly minimize the amount of cap spring and hook maintenance required.

Glad you got it up and running again, good job!

Do you have a sailrite cylindrical arm machine?
Sorry, we do not.
👍👍👍
Is it possible to adjust the front-to-back movement of the needle bar in the Sailrite? If so, how? Thanks.
I have never done that (move the needle bar back or forward) so I am not sure. You can email this question to support@sailrite.com and a sewing machine tech will contact you if this is possible.
