Oren fy810 post bed

[Jholden0]

I picked up this Oren post bed wig sewing machine for really cheap.  It was missing some parts that I was able to replace.  However, there is one part I am unable to source.  I know that it's out there, I just don't know what other models and manufacturers utilize the same parts or other clones.  I need a thread take up lever connecting pin.  It is circled in blue.  It looks like it is fine, but the pin that slides into the needle bar crank assembly is actually snapped in half and the pin slides out under tension.  Anyone that can help would be extremely appreciated.

The Oren appears to be similar to the Yamata fy810 so you could try and contact them at Yamata USA Inc  now called Ricoma at ricoma.com. A temporary alternative would be to install a cotter pin or a nail of the same diameter if there is enough clearance.

I wonder if you could get by using a Roll-Pin  ?, they strong, pretty common and easy find . selection of Roll-Pin punches are cheep purchase also .

Only thing is you will have to remove the item, to lay flat on a backing, and tap in the roll pin .

Thank you both for the response.  I actually have a yamata fy810 as well.  I tried reaching out to yamata and they actually don't sell parts.  Lol.  What a sham.  Anyway, I found that this machine is a direct clone of the consew 228-r.  It uses the same parts.  I ordered the parts I needed.  Thanks again for taking the time to respond.  I'm going to try a roll pin for the time being.
