My machine is working for normal sewing, but the overlock needle bar won't move. I have changed the needle, checked all tensions, and cleaned all the dust out.

It sounds as though it's time for your New Home to have a visit with a professional repair tech. You've noted changing needle, checking tension, cleaning dust, so I'm assuming you've also followed the user manual instructions for the settings needed - after those boxes are ticked there is usually only one reason a machine won't sew - a broken or worn gear/part/assembly within the machine. Generally this isn't something that can be handled at home - a pro has the service manuals, tools, and training to work out and repair the problem.
Right said wheel no rimov
My combi dx turned out to be a frozen needle bar clamp shaft that is behind the needle bar, the symptom was that it froze in the needle up. For $5 get the service manual and also check the timing of the cams, mine had shifted over the years.
Do you know if the Combi 222 is the same as another model? I cannot find anything about this model, which I rececntly acquired. The machine sews fine, but the serger part does not work. The needle moves but it does NOT create the stitches. Any ideas?
