Singer 7462 Mechanical Sewing Machine - Page 8 Questions & Answers
I am sewing on demim.
The manual can be downloaded for free from Singer's web site...
Are you seeing loops of the upper thread on the bottom side? If so, then the bobbin tension is too tight, or the upper tension is too loose. The threaded shaft on the upper tension might have stripped, leaving you with no adjustability.
Singer 6412- thread loops up and knots up on bottom of material
"Birdnesting" occurs when there is no tension on the needle thread to
pull the bobbin thread. This is easily corrected by rethreading the
machine, following the threading path carefully and making sure the
thread is fully engaged in the tension mechanism.
Good luck ..
I have singer sewing machine
It's a loud machine.
If you have kids or you simply don't want anything that's noisy, then you better look for another one. This equipment produces noise than may annoy you.
Get the bobbin case fixed, and find a sewing machine store that takes trade ins.
Tension problems
Hi, check that the thread tension knob makes only one rotation from 0 to 9 and stops at each ends, see that it moves in and out as you increase or decrease the tention, see that the small tension wire to the left of the knob is still in place, in any of these fail you need to replace/repair that assembly.
The sewing machine motor does'nt
problem can't be diagnosed with just this info. could be motor, cord, plug, where the cord attaches to the machine, need more info.

Buttonhole
When a machine does an "automatic buttonhole the feed does not move for a few stitches and maay jam if there are too many stitches made in this position. Is it an automatic buttonhole or can you choose how many stitches for your bartack?
You ask about 0.5 well that is halfway between 0 and 1 on the stitchlength and this is indeed the recommended setting for buttonholes. If you are doing a manual buttonhole set your machine to this for the sides and zero for the bartacks but you only need about 6-10 stitches on the bartack. Fininsh it off securely by setting to straight stitch and stitch length zero for about 4 stitches to lock the thread in.
