Frequently Asked Questions - Bessie VERITAS
How do I thread the needle on the Veritas Bessie?
Raise the presser foot and turn the handwheel to raise the needle to its highest position. Pass the thread through the thread guides from top to bottom, then through the needle eye from front to back. Pull about 10 cm of thread under the presser foot.
How do I wind the bobbin?
Place the bobbin on the bobbin winder spindle. Pass the thread through the bobbin winder tension disc as shown in the manual. Push the bobbin winder lever to the right. Turn on the machine and press the foot pedal. Wind until full, then cut thread.
What to do if the machine jams?
Turn off the machine. Remove the fabric and raise the presser foot. Turn the handwheel back and forth to release jammed threads. Open the bobbin case and remove any tangled thread. Re-thread both needle and bobbin.
How to adjust the stitch length?
Use the stitch length dial located on the front of the machine. Turn it to the desired number: higher numbers indicate longer stitches. For general sewing, setting 2.5 to 3 is recommended.
How to change the needle?
Turn off the machine. Loosen the needle clamp screw with a screwdriver. Remove the old needle. Insert the new needle with the flat side facing back, push it up as far as it goes, and tighten the screw.
What type of oil should I use?
Use sewing machine oil specifically designed for household machines. Apply one drop to the hook race and other moving parts indicated in the manual. Wipe excess oil.
Why does the thread keep breaking?
Check if the needle is bent or dull. Ensure the thread is correctly threaded and the tension is appropriate. Also check the bobbin tension and that the bobbin is wound evenly.
How to sew a buttonhole?
Attach the buttonhole foot. Set the stitch selector to the buttonhole symbol. Mark the buttonhole length on the fabric. Lower the presser foot and start sewing; the machine will sew the four steps automatically. Cut the slit after finishing.
What to do if the machine skips stitches?
Replace the needle with a new one. Check that the needle is inserted correctly and not damaged. Ensure the thread is not too thick for the needle size. Adjust the upper tension slightly lower.
How to clean the feed dogs?
Remove the needle and presser foot. Use a small brush to remove lint and dust from the feed dogs. Lower the feed dogs with the drop feed lever to access them better. Clean the area regularly.
