Hello, I own a Juki HZL F600 and I'm having trouble free motioning as the thread gets wrapped around the bobbin case everytime I move the fabric away from me, try to sew circles, etc. I'm afraid to mess up the machine's timing... Does anyone own the same machine and/or has any advice?
Carina replied: 6 Jan 22 at 01:09
Hi Anne, I've tried e-mailing Juki here in Japan, but they mostly guided me to the YouTube tutorial videos, which haven't been very helpful to start with... I guess it's user error. I wish there was some workshop where I could go and have someone there with me, haha.
