Hello.
Every day same problem with my Sewing machine Juki DDL-555
Running fine the first 4 to 5 hours. Later in the day the Foot/feeder wil not move the fabric ??
Thanks
Anny
Sounds like as the machine builds up friction from extended use, some vital part is lacking lubrication and is seizing up. A good service person will remove ALL of the covers and thoroughly air clean and oil every moving part. Sometimes these dry points are hard to find and patience is required.
You can get a sewing machine oiler with a long applicator and put a drop of oil on anything that moves, but over oiling can be messy.
Hi ,
i am looking for needles for the juki ddl 555 industrial machine , any ideas
thanks
It sounds to me as if the safety clutch is disengaged. OR... the feed dogs have been lowered.

The DDL 555 Model is self oiling and now is about 50 years old. But it's a great machine and should last many more years. If only feeding the fabric is a problem, then check your feed dogs and presser foot and the amount of pressure on the foot. You didn't mention what kind of fabric? Some fabrics require a needle feed machine or walking foot machine. Yes you can make some machines work on these fabrics, but you'll always have problems.
