Machine Maintenance
Clean and Oil Your Regalia
The bobbin hook assembly on the Regalia ST should be oiled on a regular basis.
Failure to keep the hook assembly lubricated can cause damage to the machine. We
recommend oiling the hook assembly with each bobbin change and before use if the
machine hasn't been used for a few days. A change in the sound of the machine while
quilting also indicates that it may need to be oiled.
NOTE
: Internal oiling needs to be done when the machine is taken to a service
technician for routine maintenance and cleaning, every 24 months or 10 million
stitches (whichever comes first).
Â
IMPORTANT
: Use clear, light sewing machine oil (recommended) on the hook
when oiling your machine.
To clean the bobbin area and oil the bobbin hook
1. If needed, turn off the machine by pressing the front switch. Then remove the
bobbin and the bobbin case.
2. Clean the bobbin basket area using a lint brush.
3. Place a small drop of oil on the hook
in the region where the bobbin
basket assembly and the rotating
hook meet. The oil will work its way
back into the interlocking area of
the hook and bobbin basket.
4. Replace the bobbin and bobbin case and turn on the machine.
QUILTING TIP
: After oiling, always sew on a scrap piece of fabric off to the side
of the quilt as oil may cling to thread. Over-oiling can cause excess dripping from
the bobbin assembly.
