Yes, I need a manual for the Bernia Bernette Deco 600. Following the death of my daughter, My grand daughter said she did not want any of her mom's sewing equipment. I kept them for her and now she feels she would like to have the embroidery machine. However, we were unable to locate the manual for the deco 600. I am unable to locate one on line...only good reason...due to my inexperience at the computer I am unable to locate a manual for her. Any assistance you can give me will be greatly appreciated.

How do you oil this machine?
Consult your owner's manual in the Maintenance Section. Clean and oil ONLY as directed. Use good quality sewing machine oil (preferably Bernina Oil made for your specific type of sewing machine) and use only 1-2 drops of oil in each spot.

How do I oil the machine. I have looked in the manual and it doesn't show anything at all on this subject. unless I missed something.
There is little to no maintenance on this machine in general. The machine is fitted with oil impregnated sintered (powdered metal) bearings that are self lubricating. About 12 to 15% of the physical volume of such a porous bearing is oil. Adding additional oil will not absorb into the already oil saturated bearing, so adding oil will only create problems such as a messy oily machine and subsequent oil varnishing on parts.
However, the front cover on the needle bar end of the machine can be removed for lubricating the take-up lever and needle bar mechanisms. The balance of the machine should be left as is without oil. Periodic removal of lint with compressed air is advisable in the hook and bobbin case area.
Over the years, it has been found that over lubrication is more harmful than under lubricating Bernina machines.

Needle won't move
Usually, the needle won't move for 1 of 2 reasons. Most commonly, there is a thread caught in the bobbin area. Take off the throat (needle) plate and see if you can find the culprit. If so remove it. If not, try to rotate the wheel back and forth bit by bit and sometimes it will get loosened where it will move freely.
Another reason the needle might not move (especially, if it hasn't been used in a long while) is that it might be "frozen" and would most likely require a tech to service it.
