Constabulary

Wow - thats awesome! I´d be grateful for any information. I´d really appreciate if you could send me a PDF file. The motor it self seems to be NDK 800 M/12 The control box is numbered with 18 025 603 Are these the numbers you need? Would be a shame trashing the motor just because of not having a manual. I think there are a few more people out there who need information about these motors.

That would be awesome! Thanks a lot in advance Eric.

A pal bought an older Juki with an Quick Rotan motor (what a beast) on it. The clutch seems to be electronically controlled. Motor is running but when you push the pedal the clutch does not work, meaning the pulley is not rotating. Any ideas why? Maybe just a simple thing but manuals are not available as it seems. So no idea what to do. The control box tag is numbered with 18 025 03 just fr the case this is important.

Selling some older very hard to find & ORIGINAL attachments + accessories for Adler 4, 5, 104, 105, Singer 45K and their clones on Ebay http://www.ebay.de/s...=p2047675.l2562 I have some more presser foot and so on, will either list them in the days to come or just send me a PN. Some may fit for Adler 204 / 205 walking foot but not all!

probably wrong needle size? Maybe chose one size bigger.

There is a kind of binder attachment for leather tape for the Adler 4 / 5 and 104 / 105. Not sure if they still make them and I´m not sure if they work for 441 type machines. Just wanted to shot this idea.

It´s an Adler 20. It seems to have a very limited stitch length regulator. Pretty bad shape. Interesting is the tag that says US Property so it was probably used by the US military. I personally would probably buy just because of the tag but I live on the other side of the pond. :-(

Even better

Singer Screw 201409: 2nd hit on Google http://sewcat.com/singer-201409-screw.html Maybe you find some more little useful screws (throat plate screws sometimes get lost too) to fill an order

Thanks for that Tejas but I was looking for the 555´s manual but maybe the 5550 is very similar. however I will forward the manual to my friend. Anyway, if someone has a 555 manual or knows a source please drop me a note.

Hey folks - a friend bought a Juki 555-4 (not for leather) and he has no manual (he has the parts list). So maybe someone can help him out with a PDF copy. Please send me a PN if you can help.

Buy some flowers first...

Cool, always nice to see other ideas but does your wife know the laundry machine is missing parts now ;-)

I dont have a consew but a Singer 111w156 and it came with a Pfaff knee lifter (I know it because I had the same on my Pfaff 138 once) but on the back of the machine it has the original Singer 2-lever-system and the two system do not work together because the original Singer lever setup needs a push mechanism knee lifter and the Pfaff knee lifter needs a pull lever. So this lever from the consew is what I would need. I would assume it will fit to my Singer, right?

if you don't need the long lever, I could probably use it as on my table I have a different knee lifter which does not work with the levers attached to the back of my machine. Can you post a picture showing the whole lever please?

covering from 380 to 220 is a quite simple task BUT you have to understand what you are doing! What you need is a good diagram of an STEINMETZ CIRCUIT, the correct capacitor and the knowledge how to do it. But if you know nothing about electricity DON`T DO THIS ON YOUR OWN - ask a qualified electrician. http://www.plctalk.net/qanda/showpost.php?p=273421&postcount=11 Again - If you understand it, it will cost you just a few bucks for the capacitor - if you don´t understand it don´t even try it. Ask an electrician or buy a servo motor.

If you have a large pulley on your motor you can replace it with a new smaller pulley (50mm recommended) and / or add a speed reducer but it is hard to find in Europe. Another option is a servo motor where you can dial the max. speed.

Just another idea for attaching a speed reducer .

sorry - wrong section, I wanted to post this in the USED section. Admin - please move the post if possible.

I´m selling a Heavy Duty flat bed Adler 4-3 leather sewing machine. It has been refurbished once in it´s live as it seems. It is in fully working condition.No mechanically issues. Makes nice stitches and is slow running because of a nice running 4:1 speed reducer with ball bearing. It has an adjustable alternating presser feet, this is not a walking foot in the common sense but it moves back with the feed dog and then jumps forward again and so on. This function can be turned off if not needed. I just have listed it on Ebay - please note the 8 minute Video (I`m not a video artist but I think it shows what is necessary) www.ebay.de/itm/201011368704 Don´t hesitate to ask questions!

Are you sure that the thread runs the right path?

Looks like a Juki DDL 5500 or so. There are many clones of this machine type on the market. Over here recently one sold for just 73€ on Ebay but it was just the head. Brand was STITCHER. Never heard of it before but it was brand new. www.ebay.de/itm/151177167875

While I looking for an idea for my new kitchen and living room table I stumbled over this website. www.simplifiedbuilding.com http://www.simplifie...h-simple-table/ They offer a quite cool looking and easy to assemble tubing system. I looked at their gallery and was quite amazed what a wide range opportunities I have with this system. And I thought it would be a very cool idea for a sewing machine table as well. No welding, just some tube cutting and a hex wrench, thats it! Big advantage is that you alway can always expand the system or change the parts configuration of the table when you need more space or just a different table. I will definitely buy some of their stuff for my new kitchen and / or living room table. I really love this idea. What do you guys think?

Maybe this is the one you need but ask the seller first http://www.ebay.de/itm/Frobana-Doppelmaschine-Gebrauchsanweisung-/221294397705

I looked closer at your picture and compared it with my machine with foot in lift up position. At your machine the part I numbered with 3.) seems to be quite far up in the fork when the foot is lift. At my machine it is in a much lower position even when foot is lifted. See pictures below Try to put flat screwdriver between the parts, use it as a lever and try to push down part 3.) I assume the fork part is too tight and the part 3.) is stuck there.
