I've done it before on Landis 12F using a 2-wheel cart fits between the motor & side perfect.It's alittle top heavy so don't tilt back too far.

Just get some oil on the parts & it will free up on it's own!

@Tigweldor The older 29-3 doesn't have this adjustment.

@Ken1967 The manual doesn't show threading just some adjustment tips. Here's a pic of one threaded. You go through the tension & then take off the brass piece holding the rubber stripper (at the bottom of the lube pot) run your thread though the rubber & then to the thread throw piece by the needle.

Looks Great! You might want to get a smaller (45mm) pulley on the motor for better slow speed control.

Yes,there's not many different types of feet out there for a needlefeed.It would be best to file it.

If your bobbin thread is showing on top it has nothing with the #23 needles,we have people using that size all the time.I would suspect you need to tighten your bobbincase tension spring to get it to pull down.If that doesn't work you should get a new bobbincase spring.

These have been discontinued many yrs ago,I sure hope you can find one as I have 5 machines here that need them ,I've been looking for at least 10 yrs.

@cadet4x4 Here's another manual 111w Navy Repair manual - Copy.pdf

needs a plate on top to enlargen the table though, because the "footprint" of the 29K-33 is a lot larger than that of the 29K-51. You can use 2-pieces of angle iron,I use old bed frame cut the length of the legs to extend the mounting surface on the short top.

Look @ the 190 system of needles it measures 1.98mm shank & 44.50 mm from top of needle to top of the eye hole making it approx 6mm longer than a 135x16

The best way is counter-clockwise.

Here's one we welded years ago & he's still using it.But every repair is different. welded Adler.pdf
