This is a really long shot, but has anyone encountered this problem and solved it?
I've had a Singer model 4432 'Heavy Duty' sewing machine for years and changed the needle many times.
Recently, though, I came to put in a new needle but the channel in the presser-fott assembly into which it is inserted seems to be blocked somehow. Of course, you can't see in there, try as i might by using little mirrors etc.
The problem is certainly NOT that the shank of the old needle broke off and lodged in the channel.
Something's out of whack. I suppose i can start taking the thing apart, but it's going to be an awful job.
Any ideas? Singer support is completely MIA as usual.
Thanks all,
