Well done. Clear and concise. Just got one from a friend whose mother is no longer using it. But I couldn't figure out how to get the cover apart. This is a big help!
Thank you for the Video. It was just what I needed. The instructions were hard to read online. (Bad eyesight). You really help me to feel more comfortable in maintaining my machine. You are the greatest. I just subscribed and looking forward to your great teaching.
I'd love to see a video (or just hear suggestions) on what NEW machines are made to last forever and have a metal frame, if there are any. I'm still sewing on an old Featherweight 221, and if I invest in a new machine, I want one built to last.
I was just gifted this sewing machine today. I haven’t used it yet, but it hasn’t been used just in a box for many years . Seems to be working Great. Taking it apart seems intimidating. Exactly what areas do we need to oil and can you show us how to put the clip back on the dial or putting it back together after taking it apart
i had one of them it lasted three years before the boben winder stoped working i replased the machine with a Bernette Sew&Go 5 it is now 4 years of no problem sewing
thank you for this one. i might just try opening up my machine myself to oil it in between yearly services (if I don't get too overwhelmed by all the parts)
This video was helpful. But was difficult to see where to oil the berrings with your hand in the way in all but one spot. Not trying to be critical, just an observation when I was trying to figure out where to put the oil. I hope I got it right. My big problem was the needle hitting the foot and metal plate. Took me quite a few hours, but finally figured out where the adjustment needed to be made. Perhaps another video showing this might be helpful to others. Thank you for the video!
Thank you for another great video. Would be interesting to look inside a Toyota Power Fabriq machine. They are sold as a "Guy's machine" - dark color and heavy duty - but is it?
Thank you. You explained how to get the covers off easy. The threading portion is breaking the threads. I rethread it from the beginning, than the thread breaks again. I changed the universal needles ten times on 50 face mask. What is wrong with the sewing machine? I still have enough patience to undo the whole machine and oil it.
Hi could u show me how to fix the timing on this machine? I have been trying and am just not managing to make the needle swing change. I’m wondering if I am not doing it right
After watching your video, I am pretty sure I probably ought to oil my machine. I have a brother xl 2600i . In my 200 year old singer I used 3in1 oil. Do I need to get a different type of oil? We have moved 5 times in the last 3 years and my machine has been moved into and out of 4 storage buildings. Would I be better off taking it in and having it professionally cleaned??
For the oil, my favorite is Tri-Flow. There is a link under the video. Also, if you are not comfortable doing a full cleaning, then yes a professional can help.
Hey you should do a video on how to rewire a viking 960 old style from the 80S not the new fancy crazy one butvthe old school one that has like no info on how to rewire it available at all its got the crazy 5 pin plug and i cant figure it out
I have had this machine for many years - want to say at least 10. I only used it about once or twice a year. I suited me for basic sewing repairs. My mom started using it to sew masks and could not seem to get the tension right. Thinking it needs a service but those are pricey $90. Some suggest replace, but then not sure what model to replace. Brother XM2701 is only $100 on amazon but I am not sure it is as good as this one. What are your thoughts?
I have a brother xl2600i. I got 2016. I have a question about what stitch to use for a stretch fabric. It's Capri leggings. Of course mine machine does not look like this one but maybe I can at least get an answer anyway. Deeply appreciate it thanks ahead of time.
My sewing machine is breaking my needle due to that move you forced the needle to do. That is, the needle is now touching the metal plate. Is that a fixable problem?
I have problems with tension control. I opened my xl 2220 and fixed bobbing threading, but now I have problems with tension control. Should foot be up or down when putting cover back together? Its related to tension control, that I know.
I have this machine but it's giving me a problem as the upper thread is getting stuck/tighten under plate .....could u help to fix this. I can send u video
Does anyone know if the stitch Dial moves to the left on position 4? or is this just an example of stitch size on the machine ( - -- --- --- - ) so does it move from left to right 4 - 3 - 2 -1 - F -- 0.
Just get some mineral oil and turn it upside down drip it on the presser foot leg or whatever the pressure foot bar thing drip oil onto that let it soak down give it a few turns to coat things good turn back over clean excess
I have a Brother class 2600 XL and I can not get the metal pole you put your thread on to pop up n I have tried everything help ,bought the sewing machine from my gf
I think Singer don't skimp out on metal for the frame of the sewing machine. Sewing machines are made with precision and the metal frame is important these days where they're made mostly of plastic.
Thank you for showing me how to get my machine apart. Without you, I might not have succeeded. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for helping me taking my machine appart.
Now I need help fixing it

Make sure you have good high quality thread and make sure the tension is set in the middle.
I'll try that tomorrow. I'm off work now. Thank you. The 'very much' is when my sewing stitch is perfect. Enjoy your evening.

Do you have a video on how to install a hook for bobbin?

Thanks for useful information. Sir gear part of this machine get damage ? And if damage how to change it ? Plz tell. Thanks

I have the brothers xl2620 230-240 volts will it run on 110 volt

I'm probably the wrong person to ask, but I believe the zigzag works for stretch material.
@@SewingMachineRepairGuy thanks. Have to give it a try. I looked through what needles I had and there is one for stretch material. Thanks again
I have this exact machine. How do I oil it? Thank you for this.
Your hand was in the way I can’t see what the bushing is
My sewing machine is breaking my needle due to that move you forced the needle to do. That is, the needle is now touching the metal plate.

I’m having a hard time changing the bobbin winding tire on this machine, is there any tips, It’s my first time opening up my machine
Do you have a review on Singer 2273??
I tried fixing my brother sewing machine bm3600, i have difficulty moving the lever and cant take the machine apart. Pls advise
How or can I lower the feed dogs on this machine to free -motion quilt?
You need a feed cover for this Brother sewing machine.
You can’t lower the feed dogs you cover it with the darning plate that comes with the machine. It’s a little white plastic square.
Does anyone know if the stitch Dial moves to the left on position 4? or is this just an example of stitch size on the machine ( - -- --- --- - ) so does it move from left to right 4 - 3 - 2 -1 - F -- 0.
Hi there, thanks for the video! Do you have any advice on how to fix a bobbin winder that winds super slow and is very noisy?
Separate bobbin winding machines are handy.
I have a PC 420 that I love but it is squeaking in the needle area a little bit but my manual does not show how to oil it.
Just get some mineral oil and turn it upside down drip it on the presser foot leg or whatever the pressure foot bar thing drip oil onto that let it soak down give it a few turns to coat things good turn back over clean excess
I have a Brother class 2600 XL and I can not get the metal pole you put your thread on to pop up n I have tried everything help ,bought the sewing machine from my gf
@starfish hi starfish ,I am glad am not alone thankyou for the tip ,will try that thxs
Thxs @starfish I was able to get my thread pole up so happy now
Can i use it on denim
Yes, with a "walker foot." Otherwise, the machine will struggle to get through the heavy fabric.
Oh, I never realised these Brother sewing machines had no metal frame at all. It’s a very cheap mechanism. Are Singers just as bad?
I think Singer don't skimp out on metal for the frame of the sewing machine. Sewing machines are made with precision and the metal frame is important these days where they're made mostly of plastic.
Not specific about much
