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

would think this machine is an H2 because of the medium materials B in the model plate.

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

I may have a timing belt for you. I found more of them for the 51 class. glenn

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

The foot that you want is the only one really produced to day. It is #82007. Much better than the elves toe feet that came with the machine. They are available on line fairly cheap. glenn

i received a text from Al Shovitz 's wife Stella that (EVO160 on this site) this morning that Al had passed away from Cancer yesterday. Tough loss. He had contributed greatly to a lot of members on this forum. I had known Al for over 8 years and we had helped each other with questions and answers, especially with Claes shoepatchers. glenn

Yes Adler 69-372,373, 572,573,672,673. Is there a model plate in front of machine? need more pics!!! it was made in the 1950's-1960's because of the color. glenn

You can do it. I would not put anything under 750watts on it. That head weighs 265lbs>! glenn

thanks Bob.

yes you can. He just wanted to see if he could find needles first. glenn

ok with trimmers, the bobbin thread is cut and clamped when you heel back on the pedal. You cannot hold hold the bottom thread. What size and weight of thread are you using on your 467? Answer that first. then we can proceed on to the next phase. glenn

I had one at one time. Have a customer looking for needles for 97-10. Any idea where one could still get them? 97x3, 97 x 4 needles. Thanks in advance for all your help. glenn

If you are using #138 thread, you cannot run the thread thru the first tension assembly called a pre-tension assembly. Every time you cut the thread, it will come out of the needle. Bypass the tension discs on it and just thread thru the guide. Do not have to do this with #69 or #92 thread but #138 yes since it is considered a thick thread. I wokred and sewed on these for seven years. glenn

yep they are on the way to you. glenn

I went on line on Google and put the part number in and got a few hits. You might try Henderson sewing in Alabama. glenn

specs of the needle so we can find something close. glenn

New genuine will be expensive. They do make generics. try eBay. there is a guy on eBay that sells Pfaff parts. he is in Lithuania. prices reasonable. You need to find the part numbers for the two gears. i would also contact Henderson sewing and Collier Equipment, both in Alabama. have parts numbers ready. ok the parts number for the bevel gear sets (only sold in sets) is #91-141536-90, the set screw set is #11-330964-15. The cost i found was $190.00 for the gears and the screws. Hope that helps glenn

Really. what went wrong?? I would like to know!! glenn

The 29-1 was made at the Elizabethport factory between 1894-1895. The 29K1 was made at the Kilbowie factory in Clydebank , Scotland. The stand should work for want you want it for. People will buy the 29-1 head if you decide to sell it. As Contabulary stated, this is and early machine. Singer stated making the UFA which becoame the 29 class in 1877. glenn

pics of the machine machine! glenn

Probably not Loctite! Just very tight. You need to find a very small ratchet with screw driver tips. I have one and it works great on small tight screw heads. Amazon carrys them but I got my elsewhere. glenn

Should be a U-tube video on the machine. I would also contact Hoffman Brothers in Chicago. The may have an operations manual for the machine. glenn

Send us some pics so we can see how bad it is rusted. I used Evaporust. to remove rust. glenn

Needle way too small for that size of thread. You need a 24 needle to sew #207. These machines come in pretty rough and you need to go thru the thread path to check for burrs and other thins. Hook may be actually to sharp on the end.
