Hi,
just purchased an used XT (big red but XT ).It's a 2yrs old one and the studio that sold me before sending has requested an Official Melco tecnician to revise it.The tecnician came, i was there, and he checked and oiled only some parts.Then he tested 2 embroidery with 2 colors on 2 needles (1 and 2) and once they were completed he said the machine was ok for him.I'm a newbie on embroidery, but spent last 3 weeks testing it and backing garments, reading book and moreover trying to embroid.The machine has HEAVY thread breaks problems....i can't complete a slightly complex embroidery, it breaks thread minimum 4 times, max 16 times....a 5000 stitches took me 1hr and half to make.Also sometimes the cutter doesn't trim proerly, and had also a thread break just after the cut when it works.I'm really worried, and i called the tech asking to come again and check the machine to test it better and inspect.What do you suggest? I have pre-made embroidery that i already made in other facilities successfully and here always give some sort of problems.I changed needles and tested on piquet knit with proper backing, also on t-shirts and stronger cotton jersey.All the same.Any suggestion? Is the amaya the right choice or do i have to quit before starting because it's a normal thing? The machine has to be productive i think, and i want also to use for complex creations.I was thinking to ask the tech to change and check all the rollers and the cutter.
Thanks in advance,
Fab
