What's the production year?

It was the tensioner. But the effort to replace it is almost the same as replacing the chain+guides+tensioner.

Could you please tell me how to repair the bobbin winder please?

Mine its doing same noise

Ahhhh!! I love the ease with which you can open the whole back end for inspection, cleaning, and lubing. What a joy! I have a model 6030 and it is a beast to open up in different sections, very frustrating not to see and access the entire mechanism. This is key to mechanical machines which need frequent maintenance. I wish all machines were designed to be serviced with ease. My questions are: 1. What was the date of manufacture for the Optima 180? 2. Do you consider it a superior machine from the 6000 series? 3. How do I oil and clean the internals of a 6030 model? I have already opened every panel on top and cleaned it, lubed it with Triflow Silicone oil, and fixed the needle bobbin timing perfectly myself. I wonder if I should open up the large screws at the bottom (not the motor housing but holding the base to the top case. Does anything need oiling up down there? So curious. My machine works but is a bit sticky on stitching, needs some coaxing. Not flying on stitches, but plodding through them. Please advise!!! I cannot afford a $400 technician bill.

My 190 machine has the same issue with not being able to move the stitch length to the green side. once I am able to disassemble that area is it only a question of cleaning? I’m assuming that the aluminum part on my machine is also seized to the shaft.

what is this hi

Hi, thanks for the info. We had a classic 100 with exact the same problem. Your information was of great help. We were able to fix the problem . Again, many thanks for the effort you took, its the only TH-cam movie we could find. With regards, Rob and Ellen

hej would you know what could happen when the reverse go got stuck ... and the machine does not go forward only only do work backward ?

OLEEEE !!😮

Excellent video guys do u think is possible to provide the part number from AC power supply cable and the pedal too I live on USA and don't know where can I get it thanks 👍

What yeR was this machine built?

You show how to adjust the needles middle position, but that threw off the zigzag stitches position and stitch width. I cant seem to find a good balance between these two by adjusting the one screw showed. Any ideas on how to adjust the needle to be centered on both straight stitch and zigzag?

Sincerely, THANK YOU SO MUCH. My Husqvarna Optima 190 was having the same problems with stitch length and stuck in reverse. Your videos game me the courage, inspiration, and techniques to solve the problems. I thank you for your time, talent, and care to create these 3 videos. Again, most appreciatively! 👋👋👋

Very helpful, thank you :)

I was surprised that there was a video about an old machine like this. My wife’s old Husqvarna Claire has the same chassi and all and the aluminium thing is not moving but with force. How did you fix that? I am afraid to dismantle the machine more than popping the plastic lids. Thank you for a great video.

Thank you so much for your helpful video!

I recently acquired a Classica 100, it appears to be of the same vintage as this. The needle likes to pull to one side. Any idea what I should be looking for in it? Thanks.

Awesome

Thank you so much for publishing such a helpful video! I would like to ask one thing. I would be very grateful if you could help me. The item in the first video doesn't work for me for some reason. I can't drag it to the green part. It stops at 0. We looked inside and there is an aluminum part that wobbles when tightened with a screwdriver. What moves with you in the video when you drag the mm size. It doesn't work together for me. What could this be? Thank you if you can help.

Thank you so much for making these videos! They really helped!

Great Driving skills 🔝🔝

how do I lubricate the mechanism that reverses the stitch from forwards to backwards? Husqvarna Classica 100. hasn't been used in several years. the button sticks. I can see with the back cover off that the mechanism is moving but gets stuck.

Can you explain the fused position

Bedankt, heb veel aan uw filmpje

Very good drivers.. Both of them.. This guy on the GSXR Great Skills... He knows what he do... Respect

Hi, du hast gesagt, dass du in einem weiteren Video noch etwas erklären möchtest ... kommt es noch?

wow how did i find this

13 Jahre später immer noch cool!

I have Husqvarna Optima 120 that worked fine for decades. Then it started to produce static noise as the foot pedal was slightly depressed. After about halfway down, the machine suddenly went braaaap and did sew but very fast, so the finer work had to be done by hand. Also, later we discovered that the cable was damaged, all four wires almost completely broken right near the socket part (that goes in the machine). I had to disassemble it (thank you for your video) but didn't find anything in particular. Also I think that the static noise and inability to sew slowly with the pedal pressed about 10% of the way, might have been the function of the fact that the electricity wasn't getting well due to broken wires. Still, I find it somewhat hard to rotate the shaft by hand, I imagine it should be taking lots of wattage like that. Maybe I need to oil some parts of the shaft?

Thanks from France ! My machine works in reverse now !

riders in the sky !!!!!

Great video! Helped me to fix the family Husqvarna Classica 90 stuck in reverse :-).

Hello, I'm looking for the way to open the sewing foot ro replace the electricity wire of my optima 610. I can not find it on the internet. Can you maybe help me? Thank you in advance.

David, Plymouth, UK - Great Video, followed the steps and have successfully rescued my recently acquired 190 and it all seems to work very well, until I get to winding the bobbin. It will run for 3 second bursts only, each new burst needing a pedal push. Yet with no bobbin on it runs quite happily. Any suggestions to finalise the rescue and get it running 100%. Thanks very much.

@peoplesx now I have a new problem. Any idea how to get the stitch type selector to work again? The bottom lever piece is in place just fine on the shaft but the rocker arm doesn't set back down on the shaft. It's permanently lifted away. I'm trying to oil it but not sure what else might help. Thanks in advance!

Amazing video, helped alot to adjust my 190. Cheers

Danke vielmals, PEOPLESX! Thanks to your informative videos, a blow dryer and some new oil I managed to get an old, seized up only-going-in-reverse Optima/Viking 150 to work flawlessly again.

This video is fantastic. Thank you so much! I fixed my wife's sewing machine, a viking 150e watching this. The seized stitch size wheel because of the stuck/siezed piece of aluminum. Some PB blaster did the trick! Thanks so much!

That is pure adrenaline... Not the nowadays 'motovlogers'

Hello, my mother gave me her old machine Husqvarna Optima 190 selectronic but I have 2 problems : - it works in reverse - it works only with short stitch length I saw that the aluminium part don't move... It seems to be bloked. Do you know what I can do...I already spent a long time without success... despite yours excellent videos. Many thanks.

Very useful video. Thanks for putting these up. I don't suppose you have a photo of the PCB board that is located underneath the base cover do you? A capacitor and resistor has burnt out on ours and I can't identify the value of the resistor other than it starts with 3, (orange). Would be very grateful if you could help. Thanks again.
