Oiling, Maintenance & Care

Learn how to take care of your Tuft Love Spider machine so that it maintains it's performance over time. Watch this video for general maintenance for your spider cut-pile.

As always, unplug your machine and lay the on/off switch on a gentle surface before working on your machine. Always make sure to clean the debris off your machine when you use it.

For lubrication, apply lubrication on all 4 guide rails and the plastic devices on them (bearing assemblies). Just a drop or two on each of them is enough. Then plug in your machine and pull the trigger a few times to really work it in. We recommend oiling after every 2-4 hours of running time.

If your machine is "beeping" when you pull the trigger that is a good indication that your tufting machine is dry and the bars need lubrication. You are trying to eliminate friction on the 4 main rods. I like to put a drop of oil on the scissors, bearing joints, scissor open and scissor close as well. Take a look at this video.
