Ed, actually, since we bought the machine from a
previous owner they were already missing! But since I
wasn't their for the delivery and setup originally, I
had no idea they were even missing. But there's a new
sheriff in town now, and I'm getting things right from
the get go!
Anyways thanks to your post I knew to look for them
when we lifted up the machine and sure enough the back
two were gone... yikes... as far as I can tell she was
sewing fine without them, but it clearly isn't the way
it should be... maybe she'll even sew better after I
get them...
I'm going to follow up with Melco, and make sure I get
the right person on the other end, I should be able to
get some (according to a previous Melco tech from
virginia - thanks for the voicemail on that by the
way).
Thanks again for the help...
