siddiqui2008 Report post Posted September 5, 2024 I just bought in a good condition Singer 211A1121K but there is no pan or oil reservoir at the bottom. How is this machine oiled. I see 3/4 felt strips below the bottom portion of bobbin which are wet in oil but there is no pan or compartment to hold oil. Do I have a missing part / pan. If yes which one and where do I het it from. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AlZilla Report post Posted September 6, 2024 So, here's a thread that should get you on the right trail. There's even a link for a close-enough manual: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
siddiqui2008 Report post Posted September 7, 2024 I have gone through the above link / topic but it did not help. My question about pan/reservoir for oil below the bobbin area still remains. Can someone please answer that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Constabulary Report post Posted September 7, 2024 (edited) The subclass is not very common as it seems. I´d post post some pictures that may help finding answers. Edited September 7, 2024 by Constabulary Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Constabulary Report post Posted September 7, 2024 (edited) BTW - this is how my singer 212 (double needle) look from the underside. Maybe it helps. Pic 2 show the junction point where bras tubes for the oil wicks come together a bit closer. How is it looking at your machine?

siddiqui2008 Report post Posted September 20, 2024 This is the underside of my machine. Do I have a missing oil container if yes where can I get it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Constabulary Report post Posted September 21, 2024 (edited) This is from a parts list for the 211A but for a different sub class. I downloaded it here https://www.universalsewing.com/parts-lists/singer Looks like there belongs and oil reservoir under the hook saddle but again, its a different subclass. I cannot find a parts list for your sub class but I would guess it is the same or very similar. I found it online at MARFAR in Downunder and it seems to be a plastic container. Singer prats number 281048. https://marfar.com.au/products/hook-saddle-oil-reservoir I´m sure you can get it from other dealers too I would try https://powersew.com/ But again - its from a different sub class so I would check with a dealer. On your machine the oil drip pan seems to be missing so it also could be that the oil drip pan had a reservoir as on sewing machines with an oil pump.
