  1. When I ship them double-boxed they weigh 52 Lbs (the extra box & packing weigh 6 lbs) he might want to re-check the weight because he's way off.
  2. Do you have any play or movement of the needlebar left to right ?
  3. The only advantage of this machine over the Consew is the higher lift & easier stitch length adjustment.It should take a longer (190R) needle and only Pfaff feet fit Pfaff's so they tend to cost more $.If you were to buy a Juki 562,563,1541 or 1508 your Consew feet will interchange.
  4. Yes,buy it's a great machine for auto upholstery.
  5. Yes,but like I mentioned b4 Sailrite chgs alot for everything.we sell these same feet & have them in stock for $10.00 ea.
  6. Once you get it where it needs to be tighten the screws as tight as you can or it will slip & stick up again.
  7. @Lgbrs9 Loosen this screw & try to push the bracket it fits into.
  8. The clamp might be stuck on the shaft,did you loosen the screw alot?If so you could try & put a screwdriver between the clamp & pry it just alittle to get it to open so you can push the bar down.
  9. It is a 205MO-25 that has a top jump foot w/teeth on it made for sewing moccasins,from the factory it will barely sew 3/8".it has feed dogs underneath that need to pull the leather through which can leave marks on the bottom & you could the teeth off the upper foot if there still on it.
  10. It's very common for the threads to get broken on the shaft.Be careful when re-installing.
  11. When it's up put oil on the shaft(right where it goes into the casting that it rides in) & try to push it down,try it a few times to get the oil worked into the part.
  12. It's possible the inside foot bar is stuck & needs some oil.You should be able to push on the linkage @ the end of the pen & push the inside pressure bar down.Look how far down this one is compared to yours.
  13. Use a large screwdriver that fits in there tightly & you could put a wrench on it while pushing down on the screwdriver will work.
  14. Loosen this screw & push the foot down where it needs to be so it pushes the outside one up.
  15. You should move it hereItems For Sale - Leatherworker.net BUT when your selling something you should price it.
  16. Call Campbell Randall @ 937-539-1400 they have needles & awls for Landis 3 & 16 that will work in your straight needle Champion.
  17. The smallest made & they are a S-point is size#21,I do stock the 7x3 in a round point in sizes #19,20,21,22,23 which some people use when using thinner thread.You might consider getting a smaller upholstery machine like an old Singer 111w or something & keep it setup for thin leather.It will take some adjusting on the Outlaw to get the tension right & they when you go back to thick thread you'll have to re-adjust.
  18. Yes,it is a wick system,but I would still manually oil all the places esp in the needlebar area before you sew on it.
  19. It is 240498
  20. If your asking for a link to the plate here it is.
  21. Looks like a nice project,do a search I think another member restored one of these a few yrs ago.
  22. This plate raises up a good 3/8" if your not sewing over 3/8" of leather it would work.
  23. For no thicker than what your sewing a size#92 would look better because the smaller thread will hide the knot better in thin leather like this.
  24. Yes,I think you understand what is going on here.The best way to clean it is & take it to a car wash (with hot water) use spray some degreaser all over,then soap it spray all the parts & rinse off.Then when I get back to the shop blow out all the oil holes & everything else off with air.When people take them apart they can damage or loose parts & some of these are impossible to find.It really doesn't need to be super clean as people might like them to be.
