@wyattuphaus Sounds like you might have something caught in the shuttle,take it out & clean it & re-install & oil the groove it rides in & report back.

In the pic above it looks like the point of the hook isn't close enough to the needle.And once in a while the needle hole in the needlebar gets elongated (on the leftside)from repetitive tightening of the needle . I've seen where the needle actually looks crooked when tightened if that's not the case here you should loosen the hook saddle & move it to the left..

@groundyThe correct # for the cloth type is #235003(which is hard to find) or #224195 like Constabulary said for the rubber one.

CowboyBob replied to CowboyBob's topic in Leather Sewing Machines
They sew similar materials but the parts don't interchange between them. -
If you loosen the needle set screw how far does the needle move left to right?

No that is the same,the 156 has another button on top.Like I wrote on FB either the belt is on wrong or the cams aren't in the slot on the bottom shafts.
-
Still adjusts the same,the only difference is the 156 has a push button to adjust the height of the foot walk on the top.

@jsfarm 211g165 manual.pdf There's 2 -ways to adjust the machine to feed in reverse,first check that the timing belt is installed correctly as shown on page #24 in this manual.If not when you adjust it so it is you'll have to re-time the hook.
