Brother SC707 F.A.Q.

How do I thread the Brother SC707 sewing machine correctly?

To thread the Brother SC707, first raise the presser foot and turn the handwheel to raise the needle. Place the spool on the spool pin, and draw the thread through the thread guide, down the right channel, around the tension discs, up the left channel, and through the take-up lever. Finally, thread the needle from front to back.

What should I do if the Brother SC707 is skipping stitches?

Check if the needle is bent or blunt and replace it if necessary. Ensure the needle is inserted correctly and that you are using the appropriate needle for the fabric. Re-thread the machine and check the tension settings.

How can I clean and maintain my Brother SC707 sewing machine?

Turn off and unplug the machine. Remove the needle plate and bobbin case, and use a brush to clear lint and debris. Oil the machine as per the manual's instructions, focusing on the bobbin area. Use only sewing machine oil. Reassemble the machine carefully.

Why is the fabric not feeding through the machine properly?

Ensure the feed dogs are raised and not set to free-motion sewing. Check that the presser foot is down and applying sufficient pressure. If necessary, adjust the presser foot pressure according to the fabric thickness.

What type of needle should I use for denim on the Brother SC707?

Ensure the bobbin is wound evenly and placed correctly in the bobbin case. Check the bobbin tension and re-thread the machine, making sure the upper thread is properly threaded.

How do I change the presser foot on the Brother SC707?

Raise the needle to its highest position and lift the presser foot lever. Press the lever at the back of the foot holder to release the current presser foot. Align the new presser foot with the holder and lower the presser foot lever to secure it in place.
