Thank you you for showing this. I got my serger second hand. Finally figured out the last time it was serviced, they messed up the timing. Well, long story but it started with the needle bar and clamp and slowly but surely figured out it was off on timing for the upper and lower looper. As well as one of the tension discs. Ugh, this has been along road. Your video made it much more clearer to understand. Thank you so very much.
Thanks for a great video, Abi. It helped me fix jammed loopers on my Janome 234D! I did not know the position they needed to be in and your detailed visuals showed me exactly how they should work.
Please do one on putting lower looper back in. I put a new one under direction of my repairman. It wasn’t tight enough and fell out. I only remember him telling me not to move anything after taking the broken one out
Hi Abi! Not tried the timing as yet but definitely will be, I asked for a quote just to check thinking it’s would be around £50, nope it’s £80!! I will be having a try at repairing my own machines lol
HEEELLPP!! needed. 😢 my overlocker upper looper doesnt catch lower looper thread. The needles stitch but no loops are formed and secured. Is it upper or lower looper in need to adjusting? I cant find a diagram on internet of timing measurements so really nervous to fiddle with it. Hoping someone has some advice 😢
Hi Abi, I have this Janome and I am struggling to take the casing off. All visual areas and bottom plate removed... No hint of release on either side of the case. I am scared to put force or pull to hard.... Checked all your videos and couldn't find a step by step stripping of this overlocker. I am stuck😊😊😊
Hello Abi, my left and right loop needle touch each other. how do I fix this problem? if I move them apart, then the right looper needle touch the 2 top needle.
Ok my model doesn't have that kind of nut to use a socket. I wish it did. Would be more durable. It has a cheap screw like the ones put in cheaper mini blinds. U throw them away😊
Haha. Sometimes it’s a screwdriver needed and sometimes and Allen key. Machines vary. It’s frustrating at times but as long as you hang on to the tools supplied, you’ll be good 😊
I don’t go onto Facebook but you could ring the manufacturer and ask for their advice, legally now companies have to honour your right to repair so they should provide you with support.
@@laurencoles5650 hi! I had to take the bottom off and get a wrench where the one side is a “circle” and the other is a “claw”. I used the second smallest size. I’ll get the proper info when I dig the tools back out! I came in at that nut from the front of the machine but needed the bottom off to angle it in there.
Damn, so you are saying that, unlike other brands of sergers that the hole on the right needle at its highest point does not directly line up with the hole on the upper looper? This video, I've watched three times and put my machine back together. I want to cry. Somebody needs to somehow find a way of measurement that is exact. Anything. Hold a newspaper behind it and set your camera on a level with a Lazer exactly 2 inches from the front edge of the machine with the camera exactly so many inches from the edge of the left edge so there is no guessing. There is not enough wiggle room to guesstimate distance and from which angle. I know you did your best and thank you for trying but the success rate will be hit or miss. Third time in with two missed here. AND WITH TWO EXTRA NUTS AND STRIPPED SCREW HOLDING MY LOWER LOOPER.😭and u was so careful. The angle you have to hold a screwdriver while adjusting the lower looper. I have 4 servers out of order now. BERNINA dealer refuses to service my discontinued machine. Pissed that I found the right part. Wanting to sell me a new one. That's not going to happen. And oh Brother, anY service person will tell you, THE 1940D was BUILT WITH THE INTENTION OF IT BEING A DISPOSABLE MONEY GIMIC. The parts and service cost more than original cost. I bought 4 needle plates and you will too
I tried fixing the timing of my serger and made it worse. I had to take it in for repair as a result. I don't recommend doing this, based on my personal experience. It just made it worse.
I suppose it’s like anything. Following instructions for a recipe or learning to drive a car. If you have the confidence to do it, then go for it, if not, get someone else to do it.

THANK YOU ABI!!! I found a great little serger and using your videos I was able to fix the timing and am serging away!!!

I look see if it can be fixed seems when I look at it there nothing holding it on

My Huck before needle come off can this be mended
You put an Allen wrench in the screw hole at top of upper looper?😵💫
Haha. Sometimes it’s a screwdriver needed and sometimes and Allen key. Machines vary. It’s frustrating at times but as long as you hang on to the tools supplied, you’ll be good 😊
Hi! My 134d has a bar in the way of the timing nut! I can’t get to it properly.
I messaged you on Facebook.

@@MelissaNonnemakerSmale hi I have the same model as you and a bar with an 18 on it is in the way
How did you resolve please if you could help

Excuse servers its my spell check SERGERS. In just heated with my machine
How do I fix the upper looper timing? my upper looper is not in the right position, and hits the needles
Is it this machine you’re using?
@@AbisDen It's a mylock 204D, is really similar
I want to know how you can use a sewing machine with a kitten around, my kitten won't let me see cause she wants to play with all the moving parts.
Hi Abi. I'll still bring my machine to you as and and when. Love the new kitty. how old is she---- he. 😘👍
It’ll be a pleasure to help. Bee? She is only just 12 weeks old. So still very little and very energetic
The stitch not coming through right place I not good at describing this to you
I'm not understanding the problem. I don't have a tutorial for a Husqavarna
