As Tony said,go with the Pearson #6 . I might be able to find you an owners manual. Top Hand saddlery in NSW carry a few spares . Aaron Martin Harness in Canada carry extensive parts for the pearson at what I believe are fair prices. Both the above may be found on the internet. Al

Iff you go back to my original question ,then read arts sarcastic reply,you understand why I burred up. When you talk down to me you get what coming!!!!!!!! Beaton from Queensland answered the question the way I was expecting it to be answered. No bulldust,just straight up and down, honest,informative answer. My 40 plus years of saddle making has got to be worth something!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oppology ,I'm waiting for it! "ART Marketplace and adult area Moderator & Sewing machine EXPERT" Now tell me I cant read! And just for the Record :-I am a Vietnam Veteran(Australian)

OK.Art let me rephrase mt question so that you understand it!! Remember you are the selfproclaimed expert!!! Iff I am sewing up a saddle skirt ,and then later need to do some repairs on a pair of work ckaps ,do I need to make any adjustments to the machine. Keep in mind I have only been using the singer 7-5 and the Pearson No 6 for about 40 years!! And by the way the number 6 and the number 9 are like chalk and cheese. I will be interested in your most informed(X spirt) reply. Alan Steve,thank you for your reply. I will be intouch. Al

G'day Steve, I was wondering if the class 4 machine will sew from chap leather through to several layers of skirt leather without any adjustments In other words will it sew uphill. Are they available with a 220-250 volt x50cycle motors? And are you prepared to freight one to Australia. Will it replace my Pearson#6 and my Singer 7-5. Regards Al

I bought my shuttle and a couple of bobins of Martins in Canada.Its amazing the difference a new shuttle makes. Great people to do buisness with. Al

Yes ,I've used it to make a couple of saddles. I purchased the sides from Lefflers in Melbourne. Al
