    Here you find parts lists for the adler 120 https://www.duerkopp-adler.com/en/main/Support/downloads/index.html?action=search&prop0=%2Fcommons%2Fdownload%2Fpublic%2F120%2F&prop1=

    This looks like a fine machine for what you want to do
  3. Michiel
    The sewing machine on your picture has only one foot (so it has not “triple transport”)
  4. Michiel
    But that said that Adler 68FD62S looks like an nice machine and if the price is right you should be able to use it for some leather topstitching (but still are better of with an other machine for the rest of the work)
  5. Michiel
    I think Constabulary is right: start with an flatbed (triple transport) second machine for upholstry could be an postbed (for topstitching) but more likly a double needle with better transport have you seen this channel?

    Good to read you solved your problem there seems to exist moving bindersets for the adler 269 (which may fit on the 169 as well) but they are expensive anyway I will keep using my 69 for binding….
  7. Michiel
    Is the binder synchronised (with the needle and inner foot) or fixed?
  8. Michiel
    Looks nice how is the stitch length when stitching on a piece of card board or paper (and without thread)?

    I do have a parts list but its too big to post here for me if you sent me a pm i can mail it to you regards michiel

    An adler 98 wouldnot be my first choice for a binding machine (only has drop feed) I have never seen binder kits for this machine (and parts are expensive) but if the machine is working you always can add an standard edge binder

    Leaflet with specs: https://www.duerkopp-adler.com/commons/download/download-text-attachments/Vintage_Leaflets_Adler/Leaflet_Adler_class_98.pdf i have one bought it as a sailmakers machine but you also can zig zag leather pieces together
  12. Michiel
    Yes i did Some werk on it Here you find the service manual (which helped me with everything) https://www.duerkopp-adler.com/commons/download/download-text-attachments/Vintage_Manuals_Adler/Serviceanleitung_169_DE.pdf It is in german, there is also an english version on that site but that is from the singer 169 which is the same as de Adler 69 (yes that is strange) regards, michiel

    Hi georgi, As far as i know There are a lot of Adler 69 around and there are a lot of aftermarket parts avalible. the Adler 169 on the otter hand is rare and it hard to fine parts i have both machines but only use the 69 for binding. I would like to know Adler 269 binding kits fit Regards, Michiel

    Are the inner and Outer foot both rising not high enough? or is one doing it beter than the other ? btw: my interpretation of “ footlift “in the specifications is the Max distance between the machine bed and feet and not the movement of the feet While sewing (but That is how i read it) my adlers in that class have an footlift about 7 mm but i think the movement of the foot is also more like ca 4 mm regards Michiel
  15. Michiel
    In the picture its aan rollerfoot nut its the same procedure for an walking foot and the Gauche van be a piece of wood or something else with the right size Sorry, auto correct om my ipad only does dutch so changes everything

    Great machines if it is in aan Good condition i would nog worry too Much about spare parts sent you aan pm in Dutch......
  18. Michiel
    Yes its a adler 69 but i canot Say What subclass it is with only these Photo’s I can see it has needle transport at least ....(or triple feed but it is hard to see)
  19. Michiel
    The adler 98 is definitely stronger than an berina 217 the feed dogs are much wider and its an stronger machine, verry useful for sails the adler 266 / 166 is for heavy needles and threads (needles 140-230) but like wiz says : for boat covers and other stuf which does not require zig zag an triple feed machine is better (i use an adler 167 for stuf like that) michiel
  20. Michiel
    If you turn the machine by hand (slow) you can see if the stitch in reverse is longer or constabulary is right (my guess would be you are missing stitches in reverse...) regards michiel
  21. Michiel
    Hi nick, i have an 98 too and never found a manual..... beware: on the back side there is a cover, if you open it you will find yourself with some loose parts! i just wanted to take a look but it toke me some efford to get everything back in place the right way (and with the timing right) but if its not working properly maybe some did the same and did not succed to get it right again. Kind regards michiel
  22. Michiel
    Every time I need a part for an adler i think about you and your singers constabulary (but i still keep buying adlers)
  23. Michiel
    ther are no timing marks, but when you put the neelde and hook in the right position for timing the hook you only have to put the belt on its place
  24. Michiel
    this post was verry helpfull when i had to replace the timingbelt of mij adler 169 when I did it again with an adler 67 I made some photo's of how i got the belt through the gap....
  25. Michiel
