One of the common problems in this area of your Elna sewing machine is that too much thread is piling up in the bobbin area. This happens when the thread fails to loop properly around the bobbin when the machine is operating. Stop what you are doing and raise your foot. Then cut away the fabric to expose the bobbin area. Open the bobbin cover and remove the bobbin. You will have to cut the thread to remove it completely. Make sure to cut the bobbin thread on the outside of the compartment and remove all the thread you see along with any dirt.
Then reassemble the bobbin and re-thread it. After that start all over. If you have a loose bobbin or bobbin case double check to see if you inserted either correctly. This problem may be due to the fact you are either not using the right bobbin or you are not using an Elna bobbin that is made for the machine.
These minor differences can stop your bobbin from turning and create sewing problems for you. All you have to do to fix this issue is to replace the bobbin with the correct one. Next check to see if your bobbin is right-side up. It is possible to put the bobbin in upside down. To fix this minor issue just take the bobbin out and put it in the right side up.
How do you tell if the bobbin is upside down? If you see only 2 little holes on the bobbin then you have it in backward. The top of the Elna bobbin has many little holes in it. The following instructions are for the Elna and serve as an example only for other machines. First, plug your sewing machine in and turn it on.
Next, put a spool of thread in its place and move the needle all the way up. Now hold the balance wheel and pull the stop motion knob in your direction until it clicks into place. After that pull the thread through the cover thread guide making sure not to cross the thread over itself. Then take the thread over to the bobbin winder thread guide, winding the thread over that without crossing the thread. Pick up your empty bobbin and insert the thread end through the hole from the inside to the outside.
Place the bobbin on the bobbin winder spindle with the thread up and lock the winder in place. Hold the thread and slightly push your foot pedal so the bobbin winds. Stop this process for a moment and trim the thread end close to the bobbin and then continue winding the bobbin.
The process should stop automatically once the bobbin is threaded. Remove the bobbin from the winder trim any excess thread and place the bobbin in the bobbin case and you are done. When this happens check to see if you do not have a short in the wiring. A short can keep the motor running as all control is lost and devices designed to stop the motor are ruined.
If you have frayed wires you should replace them. If it has a capacitor that little part may be the source of the problem. If it has a computer chip, you would need to take your machine to the approved repairman and get the foot pedal fixed or replaced.
When you are opening the foot pedal to check its inner parts, be careful. You may receive a shock. Make sure to unplug the machine before addressing any electrical problem on your sewing machine. Also, check the switch to see if any wires are loose and stop it from shutting the machine off. The most common cause of this problem is that somehow you threaded your machine wrong. You will have to re-thread your machine and try the handwheel once again.
If it is still stuck then you need to move on to other causes. The inner knob may be the problem for older Elna sewing machines. If it is locked then your hand wheel may not turn. Just disengage the inner wheel and see if your outer wheel turns again. Next up is the bobbin area. Remove the case and do a thorough cleaning.
Now if the handwheel doe snot move when the bobbin case is out of the machine then you will have to go to the service department and have them look at your machine.
Also, if the handwheel does not turn after cleaning continue looking for the source or let the repairman handle the task. Some simple causes are easy to fix when this problem stops your sewing time. The first step is to ask two questions. First, is the machine turned on? Second, is the machine plugged in? Checking the answers to these two questions first should save you a lot of embarrassment. Next, listen to your motor when pressing the foot pedal.
If the motor is running and the needle is not moving then you have a broken belt. Just replace the belt and you should be fine. If your machine has a bobbin setting, your needle will not move until you release it from that setting.
You have to have your machine in sewing mode before it will let the needle move. Get elna sewing machine manual PDF file for free from our online library.
