    The problem is it doesn't have a feed dog that goes up & down with the needle like your 1541 has so it won't feed like it does,the 335 is more for binding or flat work & not climbing seams.

    Yes,it's a copy of the Singer 11 class they used for grommets using the ziz-zag ,we used to get parts from them (Tailor)for some 11 class yrs ago.

    You need the foot lifter parts that attach to the table.

    The small collar with the single screw is what you adjust for the side play in the shaft,if you do not have the full width of the feed com on the feeding fork it will cause premature wear of the fork,so move the cam to the right.

    Be sure to oil the part were the takeup slides on before you run it.
  6. CowboyBob
    It is a good design in a way that even when the threads break on the shaft you have another way to adjust the length.
  7. CowboyBob
    Even IF you could find the part this time what about the next time you need a part?Sure there are some parts that are available that interchange with other machines but some parts are only for this model then you'll own a good boat anchor if your unable to find it.

    Many times the spiral threads on the shaft break & you will have to push the shaft all the way in & just use the screws to adjust the stitch length,which might be the case if this note is on your machine.

    I probably have the same manual as you,but just oil all the holes,where metal rubs against metal,the hook & you'll be ok. sINGER 153w OPERATOR MANUAL.pdf

    Turn the machine until you can see the slotted part that the screwdriver is pushing on,push it back & inserrt stitch adjuster shaft while holding it back,when you get it started on the threads let go & it's fixed.

    No,you need the belt pulley on the machine to be able to run the belt from the motor,I think Sailrite has a mega-buck geared tooth handwheel & belt system that would work.

    @MajorpixelYes,we have the screw #200555 in stock but would have to order the hook shaft(my supplier has it in stock)

    Try this one. Singer 211U157A; -165A; -166A; -566A Oper. Manual.pdf

    @LMP The cotton thread doesn't have a very long shelf life B4 it starts to weaken & start breaking when sewing,but Yes you can try it & the lube would help as long as it is rotten.

    @Steve855 It's called a drip pan all it does is keep the oil off of your pants & floor that drips off of the machine.
