I was searching the market for a triple feed heavy machine, and found this. Talked with the guy, he doesn't know what he bought but he's selling it for falling ill. Can't really associate the photos with any machine I know. Maybe some of you guys can provide any info?

Thanks!

This is a CLAES 233 - German made (in former GDR), parts are rare (feet f.i.) but hook is the same as for the Adler 269 (large hook). Maybe it can use Adler feet but I´m not sure.

I have a German language manual for it - send me a PM if interested.

Adler 269 feet should fit as well.    If it is a Claes as Constabulary says, it is well made.  Parts are the problem.

@Constabulary do you know much about these machines? What type and thickness leather can they handle? I know someone with 2 and spare parts, thanks

They can sew 3/8" as long as leather is not too hard.  Lift is at least 1/2" if like an Adler 269.  Will handle #207 thread on top.
