Yes, you should use one drop of light machine oil on every joint or anything that slides.

My Janome Overlocker keeps slowing down to a stop when sewing . Likes its seizing up, have oiled it.

If it's a mechanical machine, it probably needs deep oiling. Mine starts sounding "cranky" and that's when it needs some TLC.

Wheel on right side that controls the needle up and down is very tight...

Janome 6600. Needle came loose &fell down into the bobbin area. Needle did not break off. I took off the plate and manually tried to move a new needle and shaft up/down. needle is hitting something

If you did not get the old needle out, it may be blocking something. That old needle must be removed before you attempt to any further sewing. Try removing the bobbin case from the machine and looking in there to see if you can locate and remove the old needle. Sometimes, I've had to turn the machine sideways or upside down and shake it to dislodge the needle.

============

Open the bobbin area and hand rotate the handwheel while watching the needle action. If it is hitting, you should see it. If that is the case, the machine may be out of time and need service.

When turning the wheel the needle doesn't move, I am trying to pull the bobbin thread up but when I turn the hand wheel everything moves except the needle

Ya, that's not good. Sounds like a set scew on the shaft has come loose (hopefully), other wise, could be looking at broken gears and that is more extensive. Take it to a service tech, or your Janome dealer

My janome 11000 memorycraft's needle threader has jammed in the down position and cannot be moved

Thanks to floraq803, we have our 11000 working again. The needle threader was stuck in the down position. We turned off the machine, and turned the wheel (which controls where the needle is) until the needle threader bar was straight (approximately 1/2 way between the needle being all the way down and all the way up). Turned on the machine and the threader came back up again. Now back to sewing.

I think it needs to be lubricated because it is very difficult to move the needle up and down. How do I do this? Janome 10000

Your Moen single-handle push-pull sink may become difficult to force down and take up if the tube within the tap has missing its oiling. Hard-water enzymes may be a aspect, but you can fresh away any remains while lubricating the tap. To make managing the tap simpler, just take apart the tap and lube the tube. Since your Moen single-handle sink has few inner areas, this is an straightforward process

I've borrowed a Silver 302 from my neighbour, and after a few hours use, it's started squeaking. Loudly. I don't know if this model needs oiling or not, and if not, what it may need doing to it - just...

I'm not familar with this machine but will make some general suggestions. I did google it and found a 502 http://www.silverviscount.co.uk/shop/product_info.php?cPath=21&products_id=40 it looks like a economy front loading bobbin machine.

If you manually turn the fly wheel to form the stitiches and listen carefully can you hear a popping as the needle enters the fabric? If yes, its a needle problem. All machines need a new needle for each sewing project, 4-6 hours sewing time, before they go blunt. Cchange the needle for a new one in the right size for what you are sewing (ballpoint for knits, sharp for wovens). Refer to www.sewing.about.com for good general info on machine maintenance, needle sizes and types and threading diagrams, its a wealth of information.

If its not a needle issue then I would suggest that you open up the front flap, remove the bobbin holder, needle and pressure foot and clean out the race area with a small brush, then again manually turn the fly wheel and add a little drop of good quality machine oil to anywhere where you can see metal moving against metal and see if this quietens down the squeaking. Don't use 3-in-1 oil.

You could also ask the neighbour for the manual and check out if it does have oiling points to try and eliminate this as a cause.

Hope this helps a little.

Brother cs 6000i squeaking

By any chance were you using your walking foot when it was squeaking? I had the same issue and realized it didn't squeak unless I was using the walking foot, it was actually the walking foot that was squeaking :D I can live with that!

Remove the plate and bobbin case, beneath it will be a small round hole in the center. Inside the hole is a fluffy piece of absorbant material called the wick. DO NOT REMOVE IT! Place one drop of sewing machine oil on the wick. While you have the machine opened up, you should remove all the dust. I use the small brush that comes with the machine. Replace the bobbin case and make sure that it is clean too. Replace the plate. Lastly add a couple of drops of sewing machine oil to a q-tip and use it to apply oil to the needle bar above the needle clamp.

If your machine continues to squeek then bring it to a professional sewing machine repair technician and pay for the service to have it professionally cleaned and tune up. It is not worth damaging you machine over a few dollars well spent.

Sounds like your Janome needs gear greese also Its expensive but worth it. If your husband is good with making engine repairs then he should be able to take the bottom off the sewing machine and greese the gears only. Gear grease can be purchased online much cheaper than paying 89.00 to have it so called professionally done. Mark your screws with a touch of marker and the holes the go in before you remove the screws, so putting together is no dpubt which screws go to which place! Before starting make sure you have a coushin to lay the machine on before starting, take your time and make sure the machine is unpluged completely before starting this quite easy job!!
