For sale my adler 205-370 condition like new Euro 2950 amsterdam netherlands

Did you try to combine two smaller shims to get the right size (or a little wider)?

Did you find the parts manual? Maybe its not what you are looking for, but this is what’s available for adler machines

Yes you are right! i first was not sure if this was a moving binder, but after looking to the video of Uwe i understood this is also a moving binder (but connected in an other way than the binderset i first looked at. All in all, I do need quite a few parts for this solution (the other option was a complete set) and I don't think I'm doing enough binding to justify the effort of conversion and total cost . i think i will start trying with a non moving binder (for most binding my adler 69 and 67 with moving binder setup will do anyway)

Thanks, i think i will give that a try first

I think you have a good point there. For lighter work i have dedicated binder machines to avoid that I'm going to take that into consideration

Thank you, if its not impossible, than i think you're right. I have ordered there before and that was a good experience

I recently bought an adler 205-370 and would like to buy a moving binder set. Kwok Hing offers one for the juki 441 but they claim it also fits the adler 205. https://www.khsew.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=1902 Is that possible? are feed dogs and needle plate for the juki 441 and adler 205 Exchangable? Thanks in advance Michiel

I have seen twice a machine with a slightly bend upper axis Because of the load of the timing belt it sometimes resulted in the hook turning a little backwards when the machine stopped. (and than happend what you describe) this did not happen till the old motor (with break) was replaced by a servo motor. the first time it took me some time to figure out wat was going on……

Well done!

Hi Andre, Are you aware that you also have to replace the take-up lever? (You need a bigger one) regards, michiel

With this type of tensioner, the idea is to make two (or one and a half) turns. The idea is that the wheel turns with it but experiences resistance from the spring being tightened. The advantage over the other system is that it is less sensitive to variations in thread thickness. The pre-tensioner is to keep the wire tight around the disc so that the disc turns with it.

Hello joanah, This play is very common in old machines. Usually it is due to play in different joints (which add up). If you have the impression that there is one joint that has more play than the rest you might indeed consider addressing that one (but usually the play is in several places). It is also a question of whether only the part you want to replace is worn, or also the shaft it rotates on. (Often one of the two parts is of a softer material, but how that is here I don't know). I bought a lathe and milling machine to possibly fit new parts but haven't gotten around to it myself yet
