What needle setting should I set it to for my Brother CS6000 machine/ I can't get it just right it's either too far or too close,

On this one I think you should use your 01 setting and then move needle towards the coil to get close but not too close that will catch it. You just need to buy zippers and play around with it until u get the desired look. Hope this helps as a have the SE400.

The timing was knocked off due to a jam. This can be due to mis-threading of the top thread (presser foot up), thread caught up on the spool or spool pin or the bobbin may have been inserted so the thread was feeding in the wrong direction or jumped out of the guides. When embroidering a large item, make sure the outer area of the fabric (the amount not hooped) does not fall into the path of the needle - this will really knock the timing out of whack. Stay with the machine as it stitches so you can cut quickly the power should problem come up.

The Brother PE770 embroidery only machine requires a needle with a flat back. I would use Schmetz embroidery needles 130x705H-E in the correct size for your thread and fabric (size 11 or 14). If using polyester embroidery thread, 11's are the best size to use. Happy Embroidering!

Adjust your thread tension to 4,6,&7, drop the knife set the red slide adjustment near the needles to R, set stitch width to R

I have purchased 2 sets of these threads from Kolors. I especially like the variety of colors. I use a Brother PE- 770. I hope you have as much fun as I have had doing embroidery. In case you haven't been told, you should clean your machine atleast once a week in the bobbin area, that way any thread you use won't get tangled and you won't get as frustrated.

Put it only 385 degrees and add 10 more second to see if that works also print on one of one of the ruin shirt turn inside out also check your pressure of your machine very very important

Hi. It depends on the fabric you are using not the sewing machine. Maybe this can help you. http://www.singerco.com/sewing-resources/machine-needles http://www.sewitworks.com/needle-guide/fabric-needle-thread/

Sorry, but I haven't used the machine in more than two years and just don't remember the settings. I do remember that I tinkered quite a bit, then used a felt-tip to mark the exact settings on the guide plates. Good luck!

I started with .5mm, then 1mm and currently am using 1.5mm. The "discomfort" gets a little worse as you move up to a longer needle length, but doing it in steps makes it a little easier.

I had the same problem. The instructions are poor on this, if you look inside the Brother cartridge slot, there is a male end that is supposed to pick up the ink. One of the YOYO inks was missing a seal inside that was visible on the other inks. You may have to create a small hole in the tough piece of tape that covers the round opening, just big enough to be able to push the cartridge onto the male end of the Brother ink slot. I think that it is supposed to fit snug so no ink leaks out of the cartridge. So don't make the hole too big that it fits loose onto the small male end inside the Brother ink tray.

Not right in front of my machine at the moment, but I usually just press print again and then cut it, then print again and so on and so forth.. Hope that helps!

Yes, you must thread it yourself the old fashioned way! I have three sergers, an Elna and two brothers and I have never seen a conventional needle threader on a serger. It's probably because it would be difficult or impossible to make one that would thread two needles next to each other. There are some sergers, (high end Brothers, I think) that claim to thread themselves using some kind of air puff system, or something, but I've never seen one in action and I don't know if even they thread the needles, or just the loopers. This is a very nice serger by the way, and I use it in preference to my higher end Elna all the time.

I would look in the manual that came with your model machine. I do know that some machines are a little picky and prefer the specific brand and size. I found that out with one of my embroidery machines.

Make sure your embroidery foot is properly on and screwed onto the machine, if not properly placed on it will break/bend needles. Also there are certain size needles for types of fabric, cotton types use needle size 80/90, for heavier like fleece, layers or quilted items use 100 size. Hope this helps. Also check to make sure your bobbin is not affected, the needle going down can nest in the bobbin and make a big mess in that area.

This has not been a problem with my machine. Perhaps it was the tape? There is no way to make an adjustment that I know of. Good luck!

I would suggest maybe getting a strong pair of reading glasses or a magnifying glass to help you thread your needle. As for thread you can use any thread. I will admit the shorter spools work better but the regular work just fine.

I had the same problem. I finally got mine to fit properly, but I will not order them again. I wasted too much time every time I had to take the cartridge out of the Brother and get it back in without it being crooked.
