How To Take Care Of Your Sewing Machine

By Mark Russell


You certainly know how those fancy clothes you saw on boutiques and those shirts and pants inside your wardrobe were made. Those things are actually created by a dressmaker or a seamstress using their own hands. And to make their work faster and productive, they need a certain machinery to do it. Anyhow, one must be aware about properly taking care of Husqvarna Viking sewing machine parts.

That machinery is a big investment especially for those who are seamstress or dressmaker. Maybe embroidery is one of your hobbies or perhaps part of your business which is why you bought that machine. Nevertheless, you still must neglect about its regular maintenance. Otherwise, it would lose its quality and decrease its performance.

If you got some time to get your cars serviced, then there is no excuse as well to give some attention to your sewing machines. Unless you do not want to increase its lifespan then continue ignoring it. Anyhow, these tips below will help you to keep it in good shape.

First, keep the equipment covered always. Dust does not cause some allergies to humans but it would also affect the performance of your equipment. To avoid it, the machine must be concealed with a dust cover or perhaps a hard case. Additionally, unplug it regularly and clean its bobbin case with the use of cosmetic brush. You also should use threads that are high quality.

Second, change your needle regularly. This part could be easily forgotten by many after finishing their project. But make it a habit to change needles afterwards because it can damage the tool and cloth. Furthermore, experts say that it is advisable to change it every eight hours.

Third, maintain its cleanliness. It is important to give it a detailed cleaning once you completed a project. In removing the lint, using compressed air is helpful and it also removes the threads coming from tension discs, bobbin area and feed dogs. You also have to make sure that the nozzle is away from the equipment with at least 4 inches when you use compressed air.

Like other machines out there, this too needs a regular oiling. It is required in order to make its performance smoother as well as longer. Furthermore, the oil that should be used must be the one which is suited for this machine. You could buy it at some craft stores or online. And before applying, see if the bobbin case is neat.

Like what you would do for your cars and other things, having it serviced from professional services annually, its condition will improve. Regardless how cheap or expensive your equipment is, getting it serviced can still improve its quality, making this a good option. With someone who have experience and knowledge about this, he could manage your tool and even extend its life.

After using your machine, you still have to keep it clean again through wiping it down with small rug. Anyhow, you know now about its proper maintenance. Through this, it would last and serve you for a longer period.
