  1. Landis 16, can you help?

     

    I just aquired a Landis 16 machine.  A friend of mine uses one and he runs WD-40 in the two housings on the transmission/clutch/pulley driveshaft that is on the back of the machine, I don't know what else to call the large shaft.  Are there seals on that shaft?  When I fill up those housings with wd-40 it ends up slinging the oil out of the housings.  Or is it supposed to have a thicker consistency oil in them?  Any help would be appreciated.

      Contact Eli  at Landis Sales in Arthur, Ill.  He is the expert on the Landis 16 and can answer those questions.  He rebuilds the machines and manufactures parts for the machine.  I have never sewn or used the machine,  Sorry.
