So do you think it’s just normal then? also thank you everyone for input! I’m forgot to say it a few times! Hahah

Ok some(most) of the terms yall are using, I have to look up just an fyi haha! To show how new I am to this. So if I start turning the wheel with any force and all. It will continue turning like normal. Can I post video? We shall see haha

Still haven’t got the pulley off but I was feeling the groove and there’s a little deep part right where it meets resistance.

Ok so I’m trying to remove the pulley. I’m marked where it was. I took out the bolt that I thought was to secure it, but there’s a metal bar or pin stuck in it and no i dea how to get it out.

Ok so this is where it catches or meets resistance, however I should say that. Where that inner groove starts to change direction. In the picture the red is where the resistance starts and then where it ends. It’s hard to show the position is in when it’s actually resisting. So the photos are the spots where the bearing is at when it’ is resisting(im horrible at these kind of descriptions haha) I think that’s hardest part of all this. Every step of the process has so many elements to learn! Like every day there’s something g to research added to the list haha thank you!

What’s the best oil to use? I have a little unlabeled container that came with my Consew. But I know clue the brand or type. Is it just the 3in 1 oil? Also, thank you!

That’s funny right there 😂

That so cool to me. There are few machines in this world that last like well built sewing machines. Mr James, the man who gifted me this machine(and unknowingly had now adopted me haha) has some that his parents bought used when their leather shop opened before he was born and he’s 77!!! You hit so many good points thank you! I’m 100% a newbie to sewing machines. I have a brother I bought from Walmart and a Consew CN2053R-1 I bought last month. I thought it was perfect and it is a great machine, but won’t sew through some of the leather seems I need it to. Anyways… so when I’m looking for videos on how these are supposed to work and such, what do I call this machine? A Singer Clone? Better yet if I need to buy parts for it or whatever, what machine should reference to make sure the parts compatible? thank you so much for sharing!

I am literally reading through the manual now well trying to. But it says specifically where to oil and stuff! one thing read said, it may just need a break in period? Like to run consistently for a while. Could it just be that ya think? This one has never really been used at all. It’s essential brand new, no one one just had time to mess with it. my biggest issue is I don’t know how it’s “supposed” to run. I’ve never used one in good working order haha

Thank you! Im so excited! I think it will be a good one to learn sewing machine mechanics on too!

First time posting! Today I met a cool guy through a Facebook purchase. Owns a Shoe Repair shop about an hour an away. I went to buy an old Landis 5 in 1, but left with alot more. He gifted me a shoe patcher machine, he said it was a singer or Adler clone. It’s not the green one that around $100, it’s the white one that’s around $400. It’s brand new, he just said the wants to lock up. I don’t have it threaded or anything. But the wheel cranks fine just meets a little resistance at first. But after a full rotation it seems fine. I’m so new, I don’t even know where to start. I’m really looking forward to for help trying to find some decent videos on them and such. I’m not sure on how to add a photo but here is a link to and identical one on Amazon. https://a.co/d/1q9SAgj and and all advice would be appreciated. Just remember this was a gift, and I want to get this specific machine to work. I know I want a better machine in the long run! Haha
