If the machine regular needle threads front to back NOT side to side, you can use a double needle. simply pass both threads thru all the same slots (thread one at a time so they don't get twisted up) then just before the needles, leave one out of the thread guide just above the needle. you may have to loosen the top tension SLIGHTLY, like a half number. and do NOT use a zig zag stitch without first hand cranking it thru the cycle to be sure the needles clear, or you'll make a 5.00 mistake (the cost of the double needles!)

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.

How do I clear a cotton jam in a Juki Frou Frou HZL-11 Sewing machine

Try removing the needle and the presser foot from the machine. If there are threads above the needleplate, gently try to remove those. Then go below the needle plate and, using tiny scissors, try clipping and gently pulling out threads, if necessary, with tweezers.

My Juki HZL-E80 won't turn on

no, the light bulb won't cause the machine not to work, check the
power cord to see if it's plugged into the machine correctly, if it is
then the machine needs to be checked to see if it's the power
cord or the on off switch or the machine it's self

How do i stop juki ddl from top skipping stitches?

Hi. Skipped stitches are usually caused by a mismatch in your thread and needle. Wrong thread type, wrong needle size, or even old thread can cause skipped stitches. If all else fails, change the needle. If that doesn't work, clean the machine. Sometimes just getting rid of all the lint and giving her a good oiling does a world of good.

Let me know if this works.

I need to know how and where to oil my juki HZL-E80 sewing machine

your machine is not a self oiling machine, you should put the oil on the needle bar, and to the bobbin.

Thread continues to jam

Hi, my wife and I just bought a Juki HZL-E80... I love the machine. I had a problem like you discribe...This problem can come from two sources...one the bobin has been installed improperly. ...or been wound incorrectly by not haveing adjusted the Bobbin tension ...I did the tension adjustment with the screwdriver supplied with the machine accessories. Also...this is a biggie...the auto matic needle threader works great...but I discovered that when I preformed this function..that I over looked the thread holder that keeps the thread even with the needle....so, the solution is to thread the needle then be sure to check that the thread coming down from the spool is placed behind the little wire holder above the needle...I hope this helps you ...because it is a wonderful machine.....Bill & Donna Bramble...Caldwell Idaho...
