Leisel Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Had a lovely day at the Sydney maitenance class on Thursday....with Ladies and Gents coming from all over NSW. It was great to meet other APQS owners and to know that there is someone only a few hours away with the same brand of machine. Mark and Mike were just fantasic with lots of great info on how care for our machines and keep them running in tip top shape. I was suprised how easy these machines are to maintane, very user friendly;) Since the class I have checked the timing ( no ajustment needed Yay!),motor brushes,flywheel, hopping foot and needle bar. Have adjusted the needle up down as this was very slow and fixed the big hook on the thread path below the take up level, as it keep falling on my quilts(Thankyou Mark found the screw underneath). All in all it was a fantastic day, thankyou Susan and family for being lovely hosts and a very yummy morning tea/ lunch. A big Thankyou to APQS, Mark ,Mike and Dawn for running these classes for the Aussie owners;););) Very Happy to be part of the APQS Family;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
