    Fixing A Cheyenne Hawk

    Has anyone been able to do this? I dropped my hawk and the motor came off center in the machine, I have no idea how to crack open the case...

    also the "needle bar" came loose from the motor as well.. any help is appreciated

    You have to heat it up before you try to loosen due to the lock-tite on the threading. With a heat gun or a good hair dryer. Other wise it's damn near impossible to turn and electrical tape in your pliers, to avoid scratching
