Geri,

In "Maintenance", "Steppers", you can go to the far right hand column labled 
"Threadfeed", click on "Home". This puts the threadfeed drive motor back at a 
preset home position. But, unless you check for any thread buildup in the total 
threadfeed drive gearing system, which could cause drag and failure, then this 
will not help.

Look at the instruction I mentioned before for Debbie in my last post....that 
is the first step. Removing the threadfeed rollers and looking down in the 
pockets with a flashlight to make sure one of these gears are not broken and/or 
there is thread buildup around the shaft would be another step.

I know you say that "Maintenance" is up to date, but what exactly does that 
mean....up to date based just on the timers popping up?
