To thread the Janome Buzzin Blue, start by raising the presser foot and turning the hand wheel to raise the needle to its highest position. Place a spool of thread on the spool pin and follow the threading path as indicated on the machine, ensuring the thread passes through the tension discs and take-up lever before threading the needle.
If your Janome Buzzin Blue is skipping stitches, check that the needle is correctly inserted and not damaged. Ensure you're using the correct type and size of needle for your fabric. Re-thread the machine and bobbin to ensure proper tension and threading.
Regular maintenance of your Janome Buzzin Blue includes cleaning the lint from the feed dogs and bobbin area using a brush or vacuum attachment. Oil the machine as per the manual's instructions using sewing machine oil. Always turn off and unplug the machine before performing maintenance.
A loud noise can indicate a need for cleaning or maintenance. Check for thread tangles or lint buildup in the bobbin area or under the needle plate. Ensure all screws are tightened, and oil the machine if needed.
To adjust the tension, use the tension dial located on the front of the machine. For general sewing, the tension should be set between 3 and 5. Test on a scrap piece of fabric and adjust as needed, ensuring that the stitch lies flat on the fabric.
The Janome Buzzin Blue requires a standard Janome plastic bobbin. Using metal bobbins or incorrect sizes can damage the machine or affect stitch quality. Always use the recommended bobbins for best results.
Ensure the thread is correctly placed in the bobbin winder tension disc and that the bobbin is placed securely on the bobbin winder spindle. Check that the machine is set to bobbin winding mode and that the spool of thread is not tangled.
If the fabric isn't feeding properly, ensure that the presser foot is down and that the feed dogs are raised. Check for lint or debris obstructing the feed dogs and ensure the stitch length is set to an appropriate level.
To change the needle, turn off the machine and raise the needle to its highest position. Loosen the needle clamp screw, remove the old needle, and insert a new one with the flat side facing the back. Tighten the clamp screw securely.
If the machine is not turning on, check that it is properly plugged in and that the power switch is turned on. Inspect the power cord for damage and ensure the outlet is functional. If problems persist, consult a qualified technician.
