    The post of an one-needle machine is significant smaller and you can sew closer to the edge (of the post)

    If you cannot find an service manual i would try it with an other brand postbed sewing machine the adler 68 looks not verry different to me http://www.duerkopp-adler.com/commons/download/download-text-attachments/Vintage_Manuals_Adler/Manual_Adler_68.pdf if that doesnot work you could use the partsmanual for your machine and for the adler to find out how it is for your machine it might be a puzzle but if you print them all and do some close reading you can do it (for me this method works) http://www.duerkopp-adler.com/commons/download/download-text-attachments/Vintage_Parts_Books_Adler/68.pdf

    I made a case which fit an industrial sewing machine head the same way they are used for domestic sewing machines (just a litle bit bigger most of my adlers fit in it...

    My adler 69-373 likes thread 20 (which should be about 135 i believe) bottum adn upper thread. But its seems a machine with a lot of "historie" / pre owners so maybe someone tinkered a litle bit with it
  8. Michiel
    Did you read this thread?
  9. Michiel
    And this is 135-35
  10. Michiel
    Adler 69 should use system 134 but sometimes they are changed to system 134-35 (both are used on adler 67 ,167 69 etc) they differ in length so if you want sure to order the right ones: messure the needle wich came with the machine and compare it to the specs of system 134 if you google you will find the length regards michiel system 134:

    I have an old adler 68 which is a nice machine i have used to repair some shoes. (made it portable so i van use it at home) but they may be hard to find
  12. Michiel
    I use standard sewing machine guide's on my adlers (Same as are sold for domistic sewing machines)

    Tension assembly is not the same holes are at different distance but it was not verry dificult to install an pfaff assembly on my adler (it works but you can see its not original) regards, michiel

    That is why on an zigzag machine the hook is orientated the way it is (on the backside) : it needs to catch the topthread in both needle positions (left and right)
  16. Michiel
    The hook catches both threads on the top side you see two rows of an straight stitch But on the under side you get something that looks like an strange zigzag

    Also available with triple transport

    Just changed my adler 220 from system. 7x23 to system 328 so i can buy leather needles for is (they are almost the same length)
  22. Michiel
    just keeping an eye
  23. Michiel
    Acording the advertiser its a 63 (not 73) than it should be bottum and needle feed. all the adlers i bought (that old) were not dificult to get sewing verry well. this machine is for sale for some months now because he was asking to much (in my opinion) (if i were you i would sent him an email and offer 100 euro) regards michiel

    Last week i made a verry simple bag (a projectbag for my wife) and wanted some folded leather around it (to keep them open) i dohave some hemmers but they were nof big enough i did try to fold the leather with a steam iron and that did work out verry well in this case the leather was nof verry thick, i did use steam but did not make the leather complete wett and after it had the right form a waited about 15 minutes and than use sewed it (without glue) i donot know if this works with al kinds of leather but in this case it worked (i am not verry experienced with leatherwork)

    Check the timing of your machine (if you never did that: take a look on other posts and watch what happens in your machine....)
