Does anybody know how to fix a stiff hand wheel or why it has become stiff all of a sudden. I read it could be due to bobbin area needing to be cleaned out so l did that, but still the problem persists. Any advice would be welcome and thanks in advance.

I agree with the thread around the wheel. You could also try oiling the needle shaft, especially up the top if you can get the cover off the end. Mine seized up on me once for this reason.
