Typical sewing machine problems

With proper use and proper maintenance in accordance with the requirements of the instructions, sewing machines can be used for a long time without breakdowns. Malfunctions that reduce the quality of sewing or lead to complete failure of the unit occur in the following cases:

use of low quality consumables from unverified manufacturers

frequent power surges in the electrical network, leading to failure of electronic boards and motors

violation of the rules for using programs and modes of household appliances

natural wear of parts during long-term use

The following common problems occur with mechanical components and electronic modules of sewing machines:

Malfunctions	Description of faults
The electric motor does not turn on	The power supply has failed. Repaired by replacing individual radio components (chips) or replacing the entire board
The result is poor quality stitching	The cause of the defect is uneven winding of the thread on the bobbin, as well as incorrect tension. The bobbin case needs to be replaced
The upper or lower thread constantly breaks	A break at the top occurs when the spring installed in the bobbin case lock is weakened, when the thread is incorrectly threaded or the needle number does not match. The lower thread breaks due to strong tension in the bobbin case. Requires qualified adjustment and adjustment of the tension mechanism
The tissue moves with difficulty	The mechanism that moves the tissue requires maintenance. The presser foot is skewed. Wear of rack teeth
Frequent needle breakage	The problem can occur for several reasons: needle bar curvature violation of the mutual placement and interaction of the needle and the shuttle stroke Incorrect adjustment of the pressure applied to the fabric by the presser foot
There are missing stitches in the stitching	The gap between the needle and the shuttle requires adjustment. A thread is used whose thickness does not correspond to the standard. The reason may be improper needle placement
There is increased noise when the machine is running	Breakdown occurs when the unit has been in use for a long time. The noise comes from the electric motor shaft and other mechanisms. Requires qualified service and lubrication of rotating (rubbing) parts
Selected programs are not included	The control unit needs to be checked or replaced
Stitch length changes	The force with which the presser foot presses against the fabric is not adjusted
The result is a dirty line	Dirt has formed in the hook or under the needle plate and gets onto the stitching during work.

Despite their small dimensions, sewing machines are complex types of equipment. Professional seamstresses and dressmakers know that a successful result is possible not only when the device works flawlessly, but also when you know the features of the device and the most common causes of problems. Preventative maintenance is very important: many breakdowns can be prevented if you clean and lubricate them in a timely manner, store them correctly, and handle the device with care. The masters of our Service Center for repairing sewing machines at home confirm this. What problems arise:

• Singer and Podolsk machines have a durable mechanism. Most often, components fail: needles, pedals, electrical wires.
• Devices that perform zigzag stitching - for example, "Chaika" - have design differences from other models. Reconfiguration should be carried out by an experienced technician.
• Modern models with a touch screen display an error, based on which you can carry out repair work with or without disassembling the case.

Entrust the repair, maintenance and adjustment of sewing equipment to the specialists of the A-Iceberg Service Center. We guarantee high quality services!

The Technical Control Department monitors the timely and qualified execution of each request for repair of sewing machines. Quality Control Department employees are always happy to take into account your wishes, comments and observations.

Complex repairs of sewing machines associated with the adjustment of components and mechanisms can only be performed by an experienced craftsman. But such repairs are rarely made, only when a part of the sewing machine breaks down and requires its replacement and subsequent adjustment.
Most often, a sewing machine begins to “act up” if the rules of its operation specified in the instructions are violated or simple settings and adjustments are not followed.

The main reason leading to a sewing machine malfunctioning is sewing fabrics that are not intended for this model of sewing machine. Hemming a double hem on jeans, replacing a zipper on a leather jacket or bag, etc. - this is the main reason for the appearance of gaps in the stitch, thread breakage, and needle breakage. Sometimes this can even lead to a breakdown of the sewing machine, followed by complex repairs involving the replacement of parts.

The main part of a sewing machine is the needle.

Oddly enough, the needle is the most important part of the machine. During its “life” it makes thousands of punctures in tissue and not always light and thin, so sooner or later the needle tip becomes dull and the needle itself bends. And if the needle “hits” the metal part of the machine body at least once, the tip will bend in the literal and figurative sense of the word.
However, do we pay attention to this? The needle seems to be intact, which means everything is fine. But take a magnifying glass and look at its tip; its blade will be bent in one direction. How will such a point pierce fabric? There is only one way - to break through it.

Now let's see how such a needle will form a stitch.
The thread passing through the eye of the needle will cling to the curved point and “slow down”, forming excess top thread in the stitch. Here is the first reason why loops appear in a line. Moreover, a curved point will cause periodic thread breakage, especially in difficult areas for sewing, when the top thread is stretched to the limit.

It turns out that sometimes the entire repair of a sewing machine consists only of replacing the needle.
Treat the needle with great care. Even if it does not outwardly have blade defects and is not bent, try to change them more often.
There is no need to throw away used needles, since there are situations when needles break one after another, for example when sewing a leather bag. Then remember about the jar with old needles.

Another reason for adjusting a sewing machine, especially old manual machines such as Singer or Podolsk, is incorrect installation of the needle in the needle bar. The needle blade (Figure B) should be located on the side of the shuttle nose. Remove the needle plate and see if this is true if the machine suddenly begins to loop and tear the thread.

It often happens that a seamstress installs a needle from an industrial sewing machine into a household sewing machine. It is impossible to confuse a household needle with an industrial needle. A household needle has a special cut on the flask (Fig. B). But, nevertheless, it is industrial types of needles that are installed. This should absolutely not be done. Firstly, you violate the gap between the nose of the shuttle and the needle blade, hence the gaps in stitches, and secondly, you risk damaging the sewing machine shuttle. Some industrial needles are noticeably longer than household ones and can touch the surface of the shuttle, scratch it and even damage the shuttle.

Figure (A) shows a diagram of how to check the curvature of the needle. Externally, it is impossible to determine whether the needle is crooked or not, but if you place it on the glass (2), you can easily check the gap (1). Please note that an uneven, curved needle will cause gaps in the stitching and will sooner or later break.

In order for the sewing machine to work more confidently with difficult-to-sew fabrics, such as knitwear, stretch, thin natural and artificial leather, and denim, needles are produced that are designed for sewing just such fabrics and materials. They have a special tip shape and facilitate the passage of thread through the fabric, almost eliminating gaps in stitches and looping of the upper thread.
See needles for household sewing machines.

The looping of the thread in the line, as well as the characteristic knocking sound during their operation, is perhaps the main difference between all models of zigzag sewing machines, such as Chaika, Podolskaya 142. In short, looping in the stitching occurs due to uneven tension of the thread along its path: a broken compensation spring, a rusty sole of the foot, an incorrectly installed shuttle, etc. However, it is impossible to set many parameters yourself without experience. Therefore, if you have a poor-quality stitch, pay attention, first of all, to the condition of the needle, the tension of the lower thread in the bobbin case, and whether the upper thread tensioner is working correctly. Very often children like to disassemble and reassemble it, and after such repairs, the machine stops working.

The Chaika sewing machine sometimes has to be repaired quite often, and this is not due to the breakdown of parts, its parts are very strong, but to misadjustment of the interaction of some components of the sewing machine, mainly the shuttle stroke.
Almost all of these tips for repairing a Chaika sewing machine can be used for other models of household machines.

First of all, check the shuttle nose with a magnifying glass; it should not have nicks or rust spots. If there are nicks, they must be removed with a fine file and polished to a shine, otherwise the thread will constantly be caught behind the file marks and loops will appear from below. You just need to do this carefully so as not to dull the tip of the shuttle nose.

Sometimes the bobbin (the bottom thread is wound on it) can be the reason for repairing the sewing machine. Yes, namely repair, since an inexperienced “master” often disassembles and reassembles all the components, when it is enough to simply replace the old metal bobbin with a new plastic one. If the edges of the metal bobbin are jagged, and the bobbin case itself is clogged with thread frays, the lower thread will come out jerkily, and the upper thread in the stitch will periodically loop from below.

Often the reason for contacting a sewing machine repairman is that the upper thread is poorly adjusted. You tighten it almost all the way, but the tension is still too weak. Look, perhaps thread frays have accumulated between the tensioner plates, which are preventing the washers from fully compressing. The tensioner (Chaika) may have become loose.

But still, most often, with sewing machines like Chaika, the operating parameters of the shuttle and needle fail. This is a complex type of repair of a sewing machine, or rather adjustments, but for general information it is advisable to know the main reason why all the “troubles” of sewing machines occur.

Attaching the needle bar and tensioner

Most often, the cause of a sewing machine malfunction is the upper thread. Thread breakage, looping in the stitch, uneven stitching, omissions, etc. All this often depends on the upper thread tensioner.
It is the fastening of the tension regulator (Chaika) that most often causes its poor performance. The plastic case is pressed under the pressure of the screw and over time the tensioner begins to wobble, or even “falls out” of the case.

Adjusting the shuttle mechanism of sewing machines performing zigzag stitching Chaika, Podolsk, Veritas and others involves setting the position of the looper nose above the eye of the needle by 1...2(3) mm at the moment the looper nose approaches the needle. This parameter is checked when the sewing machine performs not only a straight stitch, but also on the left and right needle pricks (when performing a zigzag stitch).
The nose of the shuttle must simultaneously pass almost closely to the needle blade - this is the second condition that allows you to form a stitch without gaps.

In this photo, the arrow indicates the fastening of the shuttle shaft. Loosen the screw with a 10mm socket wrench, and while holding the handwheel with your hand, you can turn the shaft (along with the shuttle stroke), adjusting the position of the hook nose in relation to the needle.

However, these are not all the parameters for adjusting the interaction between the hook nose and the needle. There is such a parameter as the timeliness of the approach of the shuttle nose to the needle, namely at the moment the needle begins to rise up. The needle drops to the lowest point, and when raised by 1.8-2.0 mm, it should meet the nose of the shuttle, the shuttle removes the loop from the needle and wraps it around itself.

But that's not all. For sewing machines that perform zigzag stitches, there is such a thing as right and left needle prick. When injecting the needle left and right, the nose of the shuttle should “confidently” remove the loop formed above the eye of the needle. It should pass just above the eye of the needle, but less than the distance of the eye of the needle itself, approximately 1 mm.

The above settings can be used as a guide if you decide to repair your sewing machine yourself. As a rule, the machine will work normally with such gaps, but if you need to sew knitted fabrics, too thin (silk) or, on the contrary, thicker fabrics, more precise adjustment of these parameters is required, which only a master can set.

Sewing machine care and lubrication

In many cases, sewing machine repairs will not be necessary if you keep the sewing machine clean and lubricate it periodically. If a seamstress takes care of her machine, then, therefore, she will protect it from overload during work, and will not let it fall into the “strange” hands, which means that the sewing machine will break down less often.

After prolonged work, you should clean the shuttle compartment and other accessible places from dust, fringes, and oil stains. The shuttle itself and the shuttle mechanism should be periodically cleaned with a stiff hair brush. It is advisable to lubricate the machine at least once every six months, and after lubricating it, run it “idle” for a while, especially if the machine is not used for a long time. During operation, the oil heats up slightly and penetrates better into friction units and areas.

It is better to take machine oil into a medical syringe and drop small drops into accessible places where there is friction of metal parts.

The big enemy of all mechanisms is dirt and rust; try to keep the car in a dry, cool place. If the machine will not be used for a long time, protect it from dust, otherwise the oil will harden from the dust, and the machine will be difficult to turn, or even jam. This case is discussed in the article
