Have you searched online yet? Usually each manufacturer has a website with downloadable manuals for all of their machines. If you can't find it there, I've had some luck on EBay and Etsy. Hope this helps.

Suggest refer to the Yamata owners manual for proper settings.

If it is a mechanical machine, a thorough clean and oil may be very helpful. (You are wise to avoid using the machine until the problem is addressed as the motor could be damaged.) Wheel on right side that controls the needle up and down is very tight...

I had the same problem and after looking on here and finding no answer I went back to my machine and found out what the problem was...ok, where the bobbin case sets in,the metal plate beside it needs to be fitted right close to the bobbin case, so loosen the screws(just two of them) that are in the plate(DO NOT REMOVE JUST LOOSEN) and slide the metal plate over some just enough to fit snug...NOT TOO TIGHT... if its seems to sew too tight loosen it a bit It worked for me, GOOD LUCK

Assuming this is a 4-thread serger. The thread tension setting will depend on which stitch you are making. A standard 4-thread overlock stitch would generally have the tensions set in the middle. FWIW, the tension in this setting is correct when the threads meet in the middle of the fabric. It should neither be off the edge of the fabric or so tight as to create a puckered edge.

I was also looking for yamata manual can:t get it on internet but got it from Ricoma you can mail them on [email protected] and the will send u the pdf file may be a fee if you didn:t purchases the machine from one of there dealers
