These machines have many lubrication points. Any place where metal to metal rubs together creates friction, and should be lubricated. But when these machines lock up, most of the time it's the feed cam that has seized. This is located on the left side where the stitch length assembly is. There is usually a large black straight slot screw right in the middle of the cam. Sometimes a plastic cap with a red arrow on it is glued to it. That just peals off. You pretty much have to replace these two pieces because what happens is that the pot alluminum swells up and then no longer turns freely in the ring any longer. A few things have to be adjusted when this is taken apart. Might be a shop job.

I have an old Baby Lock BL5260DN, the feeder stopped moving and will not feed material thru.

That is a fairly common issue on that model. The feed system seizes from a lack of lubrication. It is normally an expensive repair because the parts are scarred now. Probably time to replace it.

Machine runs great. Foot peddal seams to get stuck and can only stop machine is turning it off.

First option is to lubricate the foot pedal hinge, the pivot point where the moving portion joins the stationary portion. If the pedal is not mechanically 'sticky' then replacement of the pedal will be necessary.

I dont know where to put the oil

There are small holes what you find along the moving parts indicating that it is a oil lubricating point. You might just have to use a tiny drop to get the oil to move along the holes to the spindle bearing/bush blocks or within the mechanism. Do not attempt to use too much oil but only if the machine is too dry as seem with a good lighting.

Happy New Year.

Where do u oil the machine

lubrication depends on the make and model of machine. most newer machines require very little if any oil by the user, however should be serviced by a technician every year or 2.

generally speaking lubricate all moving linkages or sliding or rotating shafts at the point where metal to metal contact is made. use good quality thin lubricant which will not 'gum up' after a few months.

Kenmore Sewing machine model 385.1884180, feed dog quit pulling

A common malady with Kenmore sewing machines. The feed system needs lubrication and perhaps some solvent cleaning to loosen sticky pivot points. If you are adventurous, you could take off the bottom and oil all the moving parts. Or take it to a service person.

Toyota RS2000-2D

My Wife has the same sewing machine and exactly the same thingvhappend to it. I took it apart and the bearings on the main drive have seized up. The machine will work for 10mins or so and then it will seize up. There is no point trying to lubricate the bearings now (they looked as though they hadn't been lubricated when it left the factory) as the damage has been done.

I have been looking for parts for this machine, but it seems like they are not available. Incedently, reviews of this machine are pretty bad.
I guess, I am going to have to buy a new sewing machine for her.
