try changing the needle, make sure the needle is the correct one for the fabric being used
also adjust top thread tension

hi there
may i know control model ? any way E811 means :
1- over voltage when voltage higher than guaranteed one is inputted ( please check wheter the applied power voltage is higher than te rated voltag ( plus ) 10% or more.

2 - Check whether 110V/220V changeover switch is improperly set.

3 - if 400 volt is input means POWER P.C.B is broken maybe repair or need to change.

best regards

hi there
you can go to www.juki .com
under industerial sewing machine youy can download DDL 8700 instruction manual it's same DDL8300 model.
now you can do next steps
1- change needle with new one.
2- you can find tow mark on needle bar the upper mark for adjusting the hight of needle bar bring the needle bar at lower position and check if the upper mark aqual with the lower bushing or no.
3- when the lower mark aqual with the lower bushing at this time the blad point of hook must be at the center of groove for the needle if no lose tow screw for the hook and readjust the timming between the blad point for the hook and grove for needle bar

Tention too loose. [email protected]

upper tension sets the lower thread tension (upper thread is what you see on the underside of the fabric). Bobbin tension is for the thread you see on the top of the fabric

I still don't understand this. I have acquiured a juki DDL 553 recently to discover I have no idea how to change the stitch length and that there is no reverse stitch. I have pressed the black button and have tried to turn the side?( the wheel?) but when i push down on the black button there is no way to turn the wheel it doesn't move, maybe there is some other part I'm supposed to be moving??
