Read Your Manual-Lesson Learned
I have a machine I bought several (15 at least) years ago and it was an embroidery/sewing combination. Used it for
embroidery as I have a Bernina I use for all my sewing. I brought my machine to work today and put in our back room so instead of going out to lunch I could sew. I have learned so much just sewing on this machine. That manual sure comes in handy. Had no idea how I could move the needle around and even wound a bobbin on this one. As much as we want to bring them home and start sewing.... When all else fails READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.

I've had my Bernina 1031 for over 20 years and STILL refer to the manual occasionally! Same for my vintgage Bernie 830 and 807. I'm a believer in the manual, <wink, wink>!!

I absolutely agree. I often refer to my manual, especially when dealing with the specialty feet or fancy stitches. It is a great trouble shooting tool too. Love the answer to "no power to machine" --"Plug electrical cord into machine AND wall socket". Yep, the cord was not completely plugged into the machine. At least I only looked like an idiot to the face I see in my mirror.

My little Brother has a great manual with pictures also. There is a troubleshooting page, and several other places for information that I like. It even came with a CD to actually see the process.
