Well poop
13 of 14 found this helpful This machine came packaged very well. I checked out a few you tube videos about the machine and took the advice to oil and run it out before trying to use it. It came with a sewing sample which seemed like a good demo of what it was capable of. The machine would not turn under it's own power until the oil started to soak through the metal to metal joints and connections. when it finally took off on its own the motor got very hot very quickly. Had to shut it down.. some inspection revealed a cam that was machined very rough. I used some light valve grinding compound on it and ran it until the machine started to show signs of freeing up. After which I drowned it with solvent and blew it out with compressed air.. Oiled the machine again and ran it for about 15 minutes under it's own power. I then threaded it up and it would sew ... a little.. The needle bar has enough play in it that the needle deflects quite easily and jams up the machine. I will say.. the clutch system.. which gets very poor reviews from competitors did work well and when a jam occurred it did keep the machine from destroying itself. since then I have used this machine to do some repair work on a couple of motorcycle seats and managed through them.. it struggles with anything heavier than light leather and vinyl.. and it still sounds like its self destructing.. Now for the confession.. I purchased this machine after watching a you tube video comparing this model to the Sailrite.. I have an old Chandler industrial straight stitch.. and wanted something that I could move around.. and I wanted the zig zag option for patching.. I will be giving this machine to a friend that wants to take it apart and square up the machining.. and as soon as my wallet heals up from this bad purchase.. I will be giving Sailrite a call.
