My machine is a Juki HZL-F600 Quilt & Pro Special.

When experiencing a sewing machine jam and encountering an error message like "lower pressure foot" on the Juki HZL-F600 Quilt & Pro Special, it indicates there may be an issue with the machine's threading, bobbin, or pressure foot. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve the problem:
  1. Rethread the Machine: Start by completely rethreading both the top thread and bobbin thread. Ensure that the threads are properly seated in the tension disks, thread guides, and the bobbin case. Follow the threading instructions in the machine's user manual to ensure correct threading.
  2. Check the Bobbin: Remove the bobbin and inspect it for any tangles, knots, or thread buildup. Clean out any lint or debris in the bobbin area. Make sure the bobbin is wound correctly and placed in the bobbin case with the thread feeding in the correct direction.
  3. Verify the Pressure Foot: Double-check that the pressure foot is properly attached and lowered. Ensure that it is securely in place and there are no obstructions preventing it from making proper contact with the fabric.
  4. Adjust Thread Tension: Incorrect thread tension can also cause sewing issues. Experiment with adjusting the tension settings on the machine to find the optimal balance for your fabric and thread. Refer to the machine's user manual for guidance on adjusting thread tension.
  5. Clean and Lubricate: Regularly clean and lubricate your sewing machine to ensure smooth operation. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning and lubrication, and pay special attention to the bobbin area and the needle area.
  6. Seek Professional Assistance: If the issue persists after attempting the above steps, it is recommended to contact a qualified technician or the Juki customer support for further assistance. They can provide specialized guidance and troubleshooting specific to your Juki HZL-F600 Quilt & Pro Special machine.
Remember to always consult the machine's user manual for specific instructions and guidance. If you're uncertain or uncomfortable performing any troubleshooting steps, it's best to seek professional help to avoid potential damage to the machine.

Juki DNU-241HU industrial sewing machine picking up bobbin thread but not stitching. What do I look for to fix this?

Question edited for clarity. Back to basics. Unthread the machine. Remove the bobbin and make sure is is correctly located and lock. Re-thread the top end. Make sure the thread is through the eye of the needle and has a long tail. https://www.google.com/search?q=Juki+Dnu-241h+not+stitching ..

Juki TL-2000 Qi. Why is my thread gathering up a little on my machine please?

Question edited for clarity. Incorrect thread tension. It is a delicate battle between upper and lower tensions. Set the bottom one correctly and then work the top one to put the thread loop in the middle of the fabric.

My Juki HZL F600 thread cutter is clicking at the end of the cut. Any idea what to look for?

If your Juki HZL F600 thread cutter is clicking at the end of the cut, there could be a few potential issues to look into. Here are some possible causes and solutions:
  1. Dull or damaged blade: Over time, the thread cutter blade can become dull or damaged, which can cause it to click or miss threads. Try replacing the blade with a new one to see if this resolves the issue.
  2. Incorrect positioning: If the thread cutter is not in the correct position, it may click or miss threads. Make sure the thread cutter is properly positioned and aligned with the needle plate.
  3. Tension issues: If the thread tension is too tight or too loose, it can cause the thread cutter to click or miss threads. Check the tension settings and adjust them as necessary.
  4. Buildup of lint or debris: If there is a buildup of lint or debris around the thread cutter blade or mechanism, it can interfere with its operation and cause it to click. Clean the area around the thread cutter with a soft brush or cloth to remove any buildup.
If none of these solutions resolve the issue, it may be best to contact Juki customer support or take your machine to a professional technician for further diagnosis and repair.

HZL 210 Juki Excite How can I stop the automatic threader cutter from cutting my thread when I am straight stitching?

If your Juki HZL-210 Excite's automatic thread cutter is cutting your thread when you're trying to straight stitch, there are a few things you can check:
  1. Make sure you're using the correct presser foot: If the wrong presser foot is installed, it can activate the automatic thread cutter when you don't want it to. Ensure that you're using the appropriate presser foot for your straight stitch.
  2. Check your thread tension: An incorrect thread tension can also cause the automatic thread cutter to activate at the wrong time. Make sure your thread tension is properly set for the type of fabric you're using and the type of stitch you want to make.
  3. Clean the machine: Accumulated lint or debris can cause the automatic thread cutter to malfunction. Use a brush or compressed air to clean the machine, particularly around the thread cutter mechanism.
  4. Reset the machine: Turn off the machine and unplug it for a few minutes, then plug it back in and turn it on again. This can sometimes reset the automatic thread cutter and resolve any issues.
If none of these solutions work, you may need to take your machine to a professional for servicing or repair.

I have a Juki HZL-F Series and the thread keeps getting cought on the bobbin case when I sew and it makes a loud clanking noise i've replaced the needle and cleaned my machine also.

If the thread keeps getting caught on the bobbin case and making a loud clanking noise, it's possible that the bobbin case is not properly installed or is damaged. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot this issue:
  1. Check that the bobbin case is properly installed in the machine. The bobbin case should be securely snapped into place, and there should be no wobbling or movement when you gently tug on it.
  2. Inspect the bobbin case for damage. Look for any cracks, chips, or burrs that could be catching the thread. If you find any damage, replace the bobbin case.
  3. Check the tension on the bobbin case. The bobbin tension should be adjusted so that the thread pulls evenly and smoothly from the bobbin. If the tension is too loose, the thread can bunch up and get caught in the case.
  4. Make sure the thread is properly threaded through the machine. Check that the thread is not caught or looped around any of the machine's components.
  5. Try using a different type of thread. Some threads are more prone to breaking or getting caught in the machine than others.
If you've tried these steps and are still having trouble, it may be time to take your machine to a professional for servicing

My new Juki tl2000qi is sewing the begining of the top thread into the beginning bottom tlstitches. Does anyone know how to stop this from happenong or why it is?

  1. Needle: The needle may not be installed correctly, or it may be damaged. A bent or dull needle can cause thread tangling and result in the beginning of the top thread getting sewn into the bottom stitches.
  2. Threading: The threading could be incorrect, or the thread tension may be too tight or too loose. Check the threading and make sure it's correct, and adjust the tension as needed.
  3. Bobbin: The bobbin may not be inserted correctly, or the bobbin case may not be installed properly. Make sure the bobbin is inserted correctly and the bobbin case is properly installed.
  4. Needle Plate: The needle plate may be damaged or not properly aligned. Check the needle plate and make sure it's not damaged and that it's properly aligned.
  5. Upper threading tension: The tension in the upper threading may be too tight or too loose. Adjust the upper threading tension as needed.

I keep getting "birds nests" under the fabric ONLY when I manually reverse my Juki sewing machine.

are you physically turning the wheel backwards? if so .. you can't do that ..the wheel will turn any direction but will only sew in one direction.. use the reverse lever or you can life to foot and place it back and re-sew over the stitches.
