    You know that the 133K18 is a darning machine, right? I had a 133K3 and own a 132K6 - you can use 214 / 328 needles they are almost the same as the 216 needles.

    we recently had a similar issue with a 153w both have a similar adjuster for stitch length. So maybe this helps:

    The German DHL / Postal Service website still states (Dec. 17th) that they atm do not ship to Cananda. I guess things have piled up on the Canadian side and have to delivered first. I have an eye on it a keep you updated. Website is in German language https://www.dhl.de/de/privatkunden/pakete-versenden/weltweit-versenden/land/kanada.html

    The screws are still available. The singer screw # is SS135D or can be found with parts number 412845 sometimes. This is a UK dealer but you will find it in the US as well https://www.college-sewing.co.uk/ss135d-spindle-singer-29k-71.html

    Here are the measures of my part. Diameter: ~24mm Hole round to flat side: ~5mm Hole round to round side: ~5.5mm Maybe yours is a bit worn and is bit flattened over the years. So i would say it either fits as is or can be reworked a little bit to make it work. Let me know what you think. EDIT: Just figured the Canadian Postal Workers are on strike.

    BTW I cannot open the HEIC files in post #3. Anyway - I found the part but I have to find my caliper to verify the measures. Later...

    I had one a some years ago. Cool needle feed machine but it was nearly useless for what I did and hand cranking is so annoying when you want to sew longer seams so really nothing I would recommend nowadays but for f.i. for the custom shoe trade (and the like) a really well made machine but needles are rare and expensive. I´ll check for the part this weekend or on Monday.

    I may have the tension part in in the 2nd picture, can you give me the outer diameter and the measures of the center hole with the flat side.

    are you sure it is the gear and not a jammed thread in the hook / bobbin case area?

    ISMACS has a comparative table for old / new sizes of sewing machine needles: https://ismacs.net/singer_sewing_machine_company/singer-needle-sizes-1950.html Hope it helps

    Aaron Martin in Canada has 331 needles: https://shop.aaronmartin.com/331LR-200-Schmetz-Needle/item/331LR-200

    So cool! Reminds me of my former DVSG / BUSMC #6 HM. I sold it a while ago but found a good new home in Great Britain but I´m still looking at the pictures sometimes . I unfortunately had not enough work for it and it took too much space. I oiled mine with 10w40 motor oil. My #6HM took System 331 needles but I´m not sure what the Landis needs. Good luck with this lovely chunk of cast iron!

    Have you checked the manual for that? Looks like there is one included. Bob was a bit faster...
  15. Constabulary
    I would go with the 750W motors. Having more power cannot be wrong.
  16. Constabulary
    Other than that maybe this thread will help.

    How significant is the stitch length difference? Have you compared your stitch length adjuster with the parts list to see if all components are present? I do not know the 269 so I´m just asking - is "bulge" on part #0268 160040 symmetrical? If not try to install it rotated by 180°. It sometimes happens on certain Pfaff machines that this part is installed the wrong way so it affects the stitch length so its probably a similar problem here.

    read the manual for your machine there should be a section for how to increase the height of lift for the lifting and vibrating presser foot

    just yesterday I looked at the spindle on my Singer 108w and it looked like the pin is replaceable. I cross checked another 153w pats list and pound the pin as spare. Parts # is 202443 And I found it online: https://parts.jacksew.com/pin-generic-202443/
  20. Constabulary
    depends on if your local 153 is a walking foot / triple feed machine or a needle feed machine. If it is a walking foot / triple feed then it is not possible but if it is a needle feed machine then there is a workaround then it would work but again its a workaround:

    I have no idea where to get Mitsubishi parts in general but the DU 107 seems to be very similar to the Singer 211 and I would guess that the Singer 211 take up lever could fit depending on the hook / bobbin size. Is the DU-107 a small or large hook machine? I also found a note regarding Mitsubishi on the MJ Foley website. Maybe MJ Foley is a source for your parts. https://mjfoleyco.com/sewing/mitsubishi/ all just guessing...
  22. Constabulary
    have you taken out the bobbin case to see if old thread has compiled and blocks it? could also be that the bobbin case opener and tab on bobbin case block each other. Please post pictures for the hook era.

    would agree to tripped clutch but you see the ball in the small window so just from the picture I´d say it is engaged.
  24. Constabulary
    BTW - the timing belt appears to be in bad shape form what I see it should be replaced. https://leatherworker.net/forum/topic/58040-adler-167-timing-belt-replacement/ Looks like the safety clutch is engaged but maybe it disengaged for some reason anyway this is how to engage it again: https://leatherworker.net/forum/topic/107021-adler-167-gk373-problems/?do=findComment&comment=710134

    I guess you mistyped 226. From what I see it looks like a Seiko CW-8 or Consew 227R or similar. The timing belts are readily available on Ebay or from most industrial sewing machine dealers. The Seiko # is 10621 . IIRC they are the same as for the Singer 111w156 (#224195). I do not know if you have a manual that explains the replacement of the timing belt but the Consew 227R manual does but seems there is no timing mark on your machine. Anyway, here is the manual, hope it helps. Consew_227,_223_Manual.pdf
