Help needed _ cant find roller foot for 45k89

[Heavenlychoirs77]

Hi there

I was just wondering if anyone knows where i can get this or if someone has a spare one for sale or know of one that would fit this machine as i am having difficulty finding anything suitable? Its a flatbed one i havent got a clue about these machines at all.

Thank you

They are super hard to find and often go for 100€ +/-. Alternatively you can use Adler 4, 5, 104, 105, 164, 165 roller feet. They are pretty much the same but they are as rare as the 45K roller feet.

The Adler Parts number for the roller foot is 06422 - maybe you can get one form an official Dürkopp-Adler dealer but expect a price above 100€

[Heavenlychoirs77]

Oh my goodness thank you so much for replying with info!  I will take a look yes i thought it would be expensive thank you you made my day:-)

Glad when I can help. The 45k and the mentioned Adler machines have the same foot bar diameter and the roller feet slide onto the foot bar.

This is an extract from an Adler 4 and 5 Manual:

Your a star thank you! Ive written to durkopf adler now so fingers crossed.

[Heavenlychoirs77]

The dealer doesnt recognise the adler part number 06422?

[Heavenlychoirs77]

They said the part is too old to exist the 06422 that was the durkopf adler uk dealer but ive asked another one who still has to get back to me

Maybe they no longer have this roller foot or it probably is an old parts number.

I just have checked an Adler 204 parts list. It also shows a roller foot but I do not know in which way it is different or if it is even the same. I´m just not 100% sure but I´m almost certain that it will fit.

The number is: 104 22 012 4

You can download the parts list here: https://www.supsew.com/download/Durkopp%20Adler/Adler%20204-2.pdf

See below pictures.

EDIT:

Just googled the parts number - looks like College Sewing in the UK can order them. But sit down before you open the link and see the price tag

Thats very kind of you thanks i will take a look!

[Heavenlychoirs77]

Oh my goodness i just had a look its eye watering 

Yes college sewing man has to get back to me

[Heavenlychoirs77]

College sewing got back to me and said to try this roller foot for 16£ inc.pp and if it doesnt fit send it back its worth a try

These are feet for flatbed machines like Singer 31k, 96k and similar, they are way smaller and the wheel is approx 1/3 wide as the Adler / Singer roller feet we talked about. They also do not fit the foot bar and need modification. I`m also not sure if you can adjust the wheel far enough sideways to fit the 45K feet dogs.

[Heavenlychoirs77]

Oh god it is a flatbed

[Heavenlychoirs77]

This is actually doing my head in now as i just gave away a singer something 120rw121 with a roller foot that was for sewing pvc piping i am now kicking myself as i had no use for it bought it by mistake it was quite cheap but i dont think it would do the thickness i need but i never tested it i need this 45k89 really as want to sew some jackets out of felted wool blankets the 121 was fast had a motor this 45k is hand crank it will take ages to sew i wish id kept it now

I only got the idea now for doing these jackets it was taking up too much room in my place the table what a dummy

if a motor is too fast on what ever sewing machine buy a new servo motor they have a way better control.
