Sewing is an excellent hobby but it can also be a good source of income. If you have a 220 volt sewing machine, it is important to maintain it properly. After all, they can be quite an investment. But don’t worry—you don’t necessarily need a professional to maintain your 220 volt sewing machine. There are many things that you can do yourself.
The first thing you need to do is to read the 220 volt sewing machine manual. Find out what kind of 220 volt sewing machine you own, the proper way of using and storing it, as well as how to maintain it. Basically, you will need 3 things to maintain your 220 volt sewing machine, a screwdriver, a lint brush, and sewing machine oil. Remember to use special sewing machine oil only—it’s usually light and clear.
The feed dogs are one of the most important parts of the 220 volt sewing machine. Start off by removing the throat plate with the screw driver. The feed dogs need to be clear of any debris, such as lint, which you can remove with a lint brush. When it comes to using the sewing machine oil, refer to your user’s manual. It should indicate how often you need to oil your 220 volt sewing machine and which specific parts to oil.
Aside from dirt, another problem 220 volt sewing machines usually experience is rust. When it comes to rust, prevention is key. The most important thing you need to do is to store your 220 volt sewing machine in a dry place.
Having a well-maintained 220 volt sewing machine can ensure the quality of your projects. You should change needles often; if you don’t, they can become dull or bent and damage the fabric you are sewing. Make sure that you have a specific area for your sewing machine. The area needs to be clean and tucked away from anything that can compromise your 220 volt sewing machine. This can include liquids as well as kitty litter boxes.
When using your 220 volt sewing machine, you should always wash your hands. A little goop on your hand can cause major problems with your machine. It also helps if you have a piece of cloth to cover your machine when it isn’t in use. If not, you should use a rag to wipe down your machine often.
