Sat, 20 Jun 2026 10:29:13 -0700

I found this spring laying loose in the bottom right of the machine when I took the plastic off to oil it. I cannot find it on any part diagrams. All functions seemed to be working before I oiled. Does anyone know where it goes?

Sewing Machine: SIRUBA HSP-6854 non riesco a far salire il filo della spolina

Wed, 17 Jun 2026 02:39:07 -0700

Salve a tutti,

Mi hanno dato questa macchina da cucire, ho seguito le istruzioni alla lettera e guardato due video ma non riesco a far salire il filo della bobina. Quando scendo con l'ago questo non riporta in su niente, e smontando il porta bobina mi sembra che l'ago quando è nella posizione più bassa sia lontano dal meccanismo a punta che dovrebbe prendere il filo e farlo girare intorno raccogliendo quello della spolina di sotto. Non capisco se sono io il problema o la macchina ha qualche problema, ho fatto due video e una foto in cui si vede la pozione dell'ago rispetto al gancio. Spero che qualcuno mi possa dare un aiuto, grazie!

Needle in the lowest position: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/enumD/...

Mi è stato detto che la macchina ha perso la sincronizzazione tra sopra e sotto e che l'ago rotante inferiore arriva troppo in ritardo rispetto all'ago. Ho provato a regolare il sopra e il sotto ma sembra che in qualsiasi posizione l'ago rotante colpisca l'ago superiore.
Ho fatto un piccolo video per far capire cosa intendo, qualsiasi suggerimento è apprezzato:

Brother CS6000i: It’s sewing in reverse and will not switch to forward

Wed, 13 May 2026 11:49:03 -0700

My Brother CS-6000i is sewing in reverse and will not switch back to forward sewing. I did an online chat with Brother (the manufacturer) but because it isn’t under warranty, they want me to join an on line service for $65 a month to chat with a technician. I have tried resetting to the factory defaults as described in another “online fix it” but it won’t reset either. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I don’t know how to fix it. It sews beautifully backwards!
