Just got a Consew 255RB. It needs an oil pan.

[Stagesmith]

I just got a Consew 255RB and I'm trying to get it set up, but it uses an internal oil system that requires an oil pan to catch the run off.

I can't find one for this machine, but since everything is a copy of a Singer I'm wondering if there is another pan that would work.

I'm seeing lots of Juki pans on eBay.

I have a metal fab shop and could make one from scratch, but it's going to take a while to fabricate that shape. Also the real ones have the pass thru for the knee lifter.

Any help would be appreciated

I think it uses just a "plain" drip pan and a a drip can with oil reservoir, right? I guess the one for the Singer 211 should work but I´d check with a consew dealer they may have one or can order the correct one. See pictures here:

Or check the parts list and google the parts number and machine model

The Consew part number is #15080. I can find a few listings for it but nobody seems to actually have one.

it is a full pan not a drip tray.

The 206RB is just a tray, but the 255RB is more like a gas engine oil pan.

is there an oil pump on the underside or are there hanging wicks into the pan that suck up oil (I don´t think so)? So if not it is a manual oiling machine (basically). I think the hooks run in an oil bath but is is a closed system. I think you can use random oil drip pans. But maybe you can post pictures from the underside of the machine.
