  1. what size thread are you using in American standards. I do not have a European chart for thread. If you are using #138 and below weight of thread, the 1541S should work fine. The DNU-1541/X55245 is for #207 and heavier. glenn
  2. Just buy one of the flip down guides that is on ebay. It will work. You might have to drill and tap a hole or two. Not a big deal. I prefer the ones made by Kwok Hing. glenn
  3. If it has toys on it, changing to a plain new servo motor will mean losing all the toys accept maybe needle positioner. want to keep the toys, get a phase converter and you may need a transformer as well. glenn
  4. No feet are not interchangeable! 69 uses same feet as 67,167,267, 169,269, 68, 168,268. 669 uses same feet as 767, 867,868,869. sorry. glenn
  5. early needles did not have a scarf. You had a long groove and a short grove where the scarf now is. glenn
  6. i would buy all the 7-25parts listed if it was me. glenn
  7. The air foot lift is on treadle pedal value I ordered from Universal Supply in St.Louis. It makes the treadle into an air powered foot lift by healing back. The regular foot lift you do not need with this set up. send an email that i can send video to glenn
  8. contact Diamond Needle in NJ, the Organ distributor in the US about needles for the 52W22. your needle system is indeed 128x3 rd point, 128x4 leather point. glenn
  9. Good news. Weaver Leather now has the 969 Pure out!! This is a stripped down 969 with large balance wheel, no air lift rather foot lift. It is just like the 205 plane jane was but now it is the big brother. I believe the price complete is $5895.00 if you set up an account with them. So now the 969 Pure, the Eco and the Gold edition with all the toys. 3 price points to choose from depending on money and needs. 16.5" throat, self winding bobbin winder on front of machine, larger bobbin, one step oiling. Higher lift, bigger stitch length than 205. check it out. glenn
  10. ok You need a stud to fit into the end of the 669 balance wheel. Weaver Leather makes this stud if you need to mount a synchronizer on the machine. No part number for the stud. If you want an air lift, the part number for the cylinder and attachment screw is #0667 135204. The manual foot lift kit is Adler part # 0367 595124. These parts come from Adler. I put an air cylinder kit on the treadle pedal which allowed me to have air lift on the treadle if my compressor is on. If not, I use the manual knee lift. I have both on my machine. Nice. Get me an email and I will make a video to send you. glenn
  11. Use a small left hand drill smaller than screw to drill a small hole in the screw. I would look for a titanium coated drill in left hand twist. The drill working in reverse may back out the screw. Be careful not to bogger up the threads in the feed bar. glenn
  12. Looks like a copy of a Singer 111w156. If so, the singer manual should work. glenn
  13. I would until machine is done. Great work so far Elizabeth. The curved needle machines are a whole different ballgame as to sewing. This is a G model machine. Landis made them up to the L. glenn
  14. Machine is probably out of time. 196 is a double needle post machine. It has 2 hooks. each hook must be timed separately. 195 manual will work. I think I have a copy of the manual but only in hard copy. glenn
  15. CALL Bob Kovar at Toledo sewing. You may have to have the parts made. Do you have these parts at all? glenn
  16. Landis sewing in Arthur, IL. glenn
  17. I would offer less money. Can he supply sewn samples to you to verify that it does indeed sew. These machines used to bring big money aka $5,000.00-7,500.00. Not so much any more. New the 767H which replaced the 221 is expensive. $, 15,000.00 plus. I would offer $3,000.00 tops. It is indeed a real Adler. Just so you know, the 3 pedal system on the bottom of the stand that works the motor, reverse, foot lift is cast , not stamped. The pedal system last time i check which was years ago was $950.00!! just for that. glenn
  18. Bob, I just checked the original Adler sales brochure for the 220 I have and both single and double needle say 7x23needles which I am running. However, at Vaughn, used 794 in both the Single needle 221's. I think I will switch mine to the 794. Thank Bob for the heads up. glenn
  19. Thus is an Adler 221-76-73 machine. Cooper when they were in business, would buy heads from various manufacturers and rework them for their own purposes. A lot of time, they made big clamp style programable machines with big clamp areas. This is a very good Adler and heavier than a 267, 767, 867. The next class of machine up from this as to thickness of sewing was the Adler 205-270. This has about a 1" lift and will sew with 207 and possibly 277 thread. Needle system is 7 x 23. they were used a lot in the tent, pool cover, truck tarp industry. I have it predecessor's, the 220 and mine is a 20" machine. What he is asking for it if I may ask? The screw holding the outside foot on is backwards. Nut should be on the right side of the foot, not left side.
  20. Use a degreaser and cleaner to clean it up. I would pay more for an item that has been rebuilt and cleaned. glenn
  21. the 2810 may be made in China but it is a copy of the Adler 867 and that is the top machine period. Anything close to that is going to be good. glenn
  22. would think this machine is an H2 because of the medium materials B in the model plate.
  23. I found my timing belts. I have a couple of ones that are a little dirty but never been used and on one, the cotton belt is dark from oil but is good. I assume his one is a little longer from being stretched on a machine. Price is $30.00 plus shipping. glenn
  24. I may have a timing belt for you. I found more of them for the 51 class. glenn
  25. good idea on bobbin winders. The pin tht held the foot bar is a very small tapered pin. If you weld up the hole and re-drill it, be very careful when drilling it. A regular small pin would work. glenn
