Ok here is one thing that most people do not know about and Adler. The needle bar height is adjustable. You have to have the height set correctly even before you time the machine . If the height is wrong, machine will never sew correctly. Contact me and I can walk you thru the adjustment. glenn

Something does not seem correct on this machine. Plate says it is a 30-7 but it looks like a short arm. Can I get more pics of the machine. glenn

Your Adler is a 1950's , 1960's machine. It is a big bobbin high lift machine. It uses needle system 332LG and 332LL LG. first is round point, second is leather point. What people do not know is Adler shoepatcher can get out of time as far as the needle bar goes.. If you want to install a servo motor on it, I can walk you thru how to do it. Been working with shoe patchers of various makes and models for over 40 years. Let me know.

The U series of 29 machines were made in Japan in late 1970's early 1980's.

Singer came out with the 153 class which was copied by Seiko for the Seiko model and the Consew model 227. Singer made a narrow throat walking foot. Not sure of the exact class. Think it was a 123 or 126. I saw a picture of one years ago. I believe the Pfaff 335 came out before the 69 Adler.

PROBABLY NO LARGER THAT #138 ON TOP, #92 ON THE BOTTOM. >Y MAY NOT HANDLE #138 ON TOP SO GO TO #92 ON TOP. GLENN

go to a #24 NEEDLE. hole made by #23 is not big enough for the thread to come up thru the hole. glenn

Go to PfaffIndustrial. Find the Pfaff 1245 section. Download the instruction manual, parts list and mechanics manual which you can download and print off. That will give you most of the instructions you will need. glenn

I wanted to let our readers know I recently came across some new old stock timing belts for a Singer 168 W or G post bed walking foot machines. All the belts are unused in good condition. I had to clean them up because they had been in bag for a few years and were dirty and dusty. Now clean and ready for Use. I have the cloth belt #264004 and the neoprene belt #264123. As far as I have been able to determine, these belts are no longer available. Contact me if you need one please. glenn
