I have a 1963 Seeburg jukebox that won't play the b side of the records. How do I fix it?

Assuming it is an 830 Record (old mechanical, not the new computerized model). If it sounds like the motor is straining but the machine's mechanics are not working, then the machine has most likely seized from old, dried up oil.

This is the method I've used on multiple seized machines and works:

This is the oil port diagram for the 830 Record.

Your machine (Bernina 600 Record) has most likely frozen (seized) due to lack of regular maintenance. Don't panic. It can be fixed with a lot of elbow grease, good quality oil and a hairdryer. The following method has resurrected several Berninas I've picked up as "nonworking."

The feed dog control is the knob at the very bottom front, right side of the machine. If the feed dogs are not dropping, most likely the machine needs a thorough cleaning and OILING! I use Tri-Flow Synthetic Lube.

Most likely because your machine has not been serviced (oiled & cleaned) in a long time and the old oil has turned to glue and seized. This is probably the most common problem with mechanical sewing machines. A mechanical sewing machine should be regularly maintained..ie every 40 hours of sewing use or at least every six months when not in use. You may want to take it to a Bernina service technician. Ask for a bottle of Bernina oil for CB hook machines and ask if they will show you how to oil it.
