			<description><![CDATA[Hello everyone, While we do not recommend using compressed air when cleaning your machines, we thought that the rest of the tips in the videos were well worth sharing. So, bottom line. Clean regularly, but NO compressed air. Lilo]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I'm surprised that you have provided a tutorial that show using compressed air! Especially after saying not to use it in CAPS. I've heard from many sources not to ever use it. Thanks for the muslin tip for tension discs. I have a Destiny 2, which is very heavy. Knowing more than just the bobbin area to clean is good as it is difficult to get it to a dealer for professional cleaning.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I have just cleaned out my overlocker (serger) I could not believe just how bad it was and I even found a full bobbin in there!!! It doesn't even take bobbins so how it got in there I do not know. I took off the needle plate and another one behind it and managed to get a special vacuum in to get all the dust monsters in there. it is about 30 years old - a Bernette 334D - and is a real work horse.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The rule of thumb I learned is clean and oil after each project, and definitely no air of any type to remove dust bunnies.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[It is recommended to 1st remove the needle and presserfoot holder and the bobbin. Remove the gray top plate by grasping the opening on pulling it forward to release. Remove the bobbin case. THEN unscrew the metal plate. Clean area. NO AIR! REPLACE the metal plate 1st; insert the bobbin case (make sure it is seated properly), then reinsert the gray top plate by sliding it forward into position. Add bobbin, etc.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Compressed air is a definite no-no. It packs all the lint deep in under the bed of the machine and really messes it up. My five machines get a regular check up every year, and at least cleaned and oiled (if it's a machine that needs oiling) once a week. More often depending on use. Too much attention cannot be paid to keeping them clean for optimum results. phillip's nanny.blogspot. com]]></description>
