Does anyone know if the various manufacturers put out training videos for their machines? The industrial machines are a bit different than home models and I need to learn some things about them.
Tell us your brand/model of machine, and what specific questions you have, and we may be able to help you.
I don't know of any training videos produced by the manufacturers. But there are many short clips on youtube that are helpful, even if they aren't for your specific model.
For example, if you have questions about threading a typical walking foot machine, this video will show you:

Not sure if this is what you need, but here are two videos, one for maintenance and one for basic sew tips and tricks etc.
