Frequently Asked Questions
Can’t find the answer to your question in the manual? You may find the answer to your question in the FAQs about the Janome Memory Craft 5200 below.
How do I thread the Janome Memory Craft 5200 sewing machine?
To thread the machine, begin by ensuring the presser foot is raised and the needle is set to its highest position. Follow the threading pathway indicated by the diagrams on the machine, ensuring the thread is properly guided through each designated area, including the tension discs, take-up lever, and needle.
Why is the needle breaking frequently while sewing?
Frequent needle breakage may occur due to several reasons. Firstly, ensure that you are using the correct needle type and size for your fabric. Secondly, check that the needle is properly inserted and tightened. Additionally, make sure there are no obstructions or bent parts within the needle area, such as a bent needle itself or a damaged needle plate. Stitching over heavy seams or using improper tension settings can also lead to needle breakage.
How can I adjust the tension on the Janome Memory Craft 5200?
To adjust the thread tension, locate the tension control dial usually positioned on the front of the machine. Turn the dial to increase or decrease the tension as needed. Remember to sew a test fabric to evaluate the tension adjustment. It may be necessary to fine-tune the tension for different fabrics or sewing techniques.
What should I do if the stitching appears uneven or skipped stitches occur?
Uneven or skipped stitches can be resolved by checking a few factors. Firstly, ensure the needle is suitable for the fabric type and that it is not dull or bent. Secondly, rethread the machine, following the correct threading pathway as outlined earlier. Make sure the thread is properly seated in the tension discs and take-up lever. Additionally, check the bobbin thread to ensure it is correctly wound and inserted into the bobbin case.
How do I clean the Janome Memory Craft 5200 sewing machine?
Regular cleaning is essential for optimal machine performance. Begin by unplugging the machine and removing the needle, presser foot, and bobbin case. Use a small brush, such as a cleaning brush or a soft paintbrush, to remove dust, lint, and loose threads from the machine, particularly around the feed dog area, bobbin case, and tension discs. Avoid using compressed air as it can push debris into sensitive components. Finally, wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, lint-free cloth.
What size needle should I use?
Which size of needle you can best use depends on the thickness of the fabric you use. With a thick fabric you should use a thick needle. The packaging of your needle states for which substances your needle is suitable.
Why does the needle break while sewing?
There can be several causes for needle breakage:
— Not using the right needle for the right fabric
— The needle is set too low
— The fabric is not properly guided
— The bobbin case is not inserted correctly
How long does a sewing needle last?
Generally, a sewing needle lasts about 7 to 9 hours.

To thread the Janome Memory Craft 5200, first raise the presser foot and turn off the machine. Place a spool of thread on the spool pin, then pull the thread through the guides and thread the needle using the built-in needle threader.
If the needle keeps breaking, ensure that you are using the correct needle type and size for your fabric. Check that the needle is properly installed and not bent, and verify that the thread is not tangled or incorrectly threaded.
Tension can be adjusted using the tension dial located on the top of the machine. For most fabrics, a setting between 3 and 5 is suitable. Test on a scrap piece of fabric to ensure proper stitch quality.
If fabric is not feeding, check that the feed dogs are raised. Ensure the presser foot is down and that the fabric is positioned correctly. Clean the feed dogs to remove any lint or debris.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the bobbin area with a brush to remove lint and dust, and oiling the machine as per the manual. Use only sewing machine oil and avoid over-oiling.
Skipped stitches can be caused by a dull or bent needle, incorrect threading, or using the wrong needle for the fabric. Replace the needle and re-thread the machine, ensuring the bobbin is correctly placed.
Yes, you can sew heavy fabrics. Use a needle appropriate for heavy materials and adjust the presser foot pressure as needed. Test stitches on a fabric scrap before starting your project.
To access built-in stitches, use the stitch selection buttons to navigate through the available options. The LCD screen will display the selected stitch pattern and recommended settings.
To troubleshoot bobbin tension, first check that the bobbin is wound evenly and inserted correctly. Adjust the bobbin tension by turning the small screw on the bobbin case slightly, testing after each adjustment.
Unusual noises may indicate that the machine needs cleaning or oiling, or that there is a problem with the needle or threading. Turn off the machine and inspect for any trapped threads or debris.
