Just hope that they find something wrong, or you will be asked to pay for the service call. Our tech came out, did work, found a few issues but then neglected to put them on the sheet they turned into melco. As a result, I got a call from someone in "collections" asking why we hadn't paid a $300+ bill for service on a machine that they didn't find anything wrong with. Oy. Still waiting for a return call on that. Now I'm nervous to report any issue I have even though I am under warranty. Wendy... How long have you had the machine. Wasn't it sewing well prior to this? Definitely sounds like a service issue if you can reproduce the error every time. :-----Original Message----- :From: amayausers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx :[mailto:amayausers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Itchin To Stitch :Sent: Thursday, February 10, 2005 1:49 PM :To: Amaya User Group :Subject: [amayausers] HELP! : :I am having nothing but problems with my Amaya. I can not get :through any design without multiple threadbreaks, looping :thread, trimmers not trimming all the way. I put in a call to :Melco yesterday and talked with Tech support over the phone. :We finally determined a service call is in order. I have yet :to hear from them. Is this typical? I am terrifed to put :anything on my machine because of all the things I've already :ruined trying to troubleshoot on my own. Because my machine :is still under warranty I feel like my hands are tied and I'm :at the mercy of Melco right now waiting for a return call. :I've got a ton of stuff to get out of here and an unreliable :machine at this point. I'm running a beautifully digitzed :design that I've run numerous times before on the same :garments with the same machine parameters. As I stand and :watch the machine sew this design I've been noticing it sends :out a a loop of thread down the hole just above where it :enters under the threadfeed rolle r and I end up with a :threadbreak or a loop in the design. This is happening on :every needle that I have tried so far. I've changed material :thickness and adjusted the bobbin tension and nothing seems to :help. I am confident it is not related to the design. Any :suggestions on what to check next? :Wendy Solomonson :Itchin' To Stitch :Arlington, MN :(507)964-2224 : : :-- :No virus found in this incoming message. :Checked by AVG Anti-Virus. :Version: 7.0.300 / Virus Database: 265.8.6 - Release Date: 2/7/2005 : : -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
