    🙂🥰 Thank you, Lori. I have watched at least 4 videos on Cleaning and putting the Addi back together. My handle went haywire, so I had to take my
    Addi completely apart to fix that issue. I didn't know how I was going to go through the steps to get that machine back in working order. Your video did it for me. I had to watch your presentation several times, however, that's, a good thing. This is now 04/11/2024 I finished at 11:15 p.m.
    Sometimes I do my best work late night. You are spot on with your instructions.

    Soak the pins in hot soapy water then scrub with a soft toothbrush? That would get them spanking clean...... I've got one of these on order, can't wait to have a go with it!

    Before you do this again, take a permanent marker and mark critical places, such as where the black needles go and how the legs go on before you dismantle that part of the Addi. Example for the legs mark with 1 2 3 4 next to where the screw goes in and then in the rim where the leg screws seat.

    Great video! Thank you so much. Question: how did you add those numbers? Did you use labels?

      I went on Etsy and bought the tiny typewriter numbers from Pastel Stickers. I took off the red ring from the machine and CAREFULLY superglued it on to the correct numbers. Just be careful

      I used the stickers on Etsy from Pastel Spell stickers. I took off the red ring and used tweezers with a dab of superglue on them. Just be careful when doing this. Make sure you take it off the machine first.

    Hello! Was the grease you were cleaning original from the factory? Or was it something you added previously? Thanks.

      It must have been, because she said she had never cleaned that one before.

      This was the first time that I cleaned this Addi so what you saw was from the factory. The Grease that I was using was from Napa and it was White Lithium Grease

    Hi, I took my machine apart and put it together, I did this about seven different times, and it is not working properly. There's one part of the revolution, of the gold ring which holds the needles, which seems to be harder to turn if that makes sense, And I am sure it's going to eventually skip. I took it apart several times to make sure everything was put back together correctly and greased. Just as aside this machine is only 2 months old. I'm so disappointed that I took it apart. Now it's horrible and I am not sure if I should return it and see if the authorized retailer who I bought it from can fix it. I'm sure they're going to charge me money because I've already taken apart and it's my fault that it's probably not working. But as a cautionary tale, I would hesitate to tell anyone to disassemble their machine. Just a note I am very mechanically minded. So not a dunce when it comes to working with tools and parts.

      I am not telling anyone to take their machine apart, however if you do, please be careful when taking it apart and make sure that you take your time and correctly put it back together. This is a difficult machine and not all the screws are the same size.

      I know what she is talking about mine does the same thing. But I just kept taking it apart and eventually got it to work.
