I have found and cleaned up a pdf of the manual for the 168w101 post stitch machine. I have attached it for anyone that may want it.

That's a nice score, both Using and Adjusting. Nice of you to contribute.

Thank you very much! I have a 168 post machine. For those who don't know, it is a full compound feed walking foot machine based on the Singer 111 series. It uses the same G size (1x) bobbins as the 111 and 211 walking foot machines. It can sew up to 3/8 inch with up to #138 bonded thread. It uses standard system 135x16 and 135x17 needles.

The post is about 7 inches tall and the throat plate is cut very close to the left edge. These machines are used to bulid hats and other round items that need to hang down on both sides of the machine. The stitch length adjuster is the old style knob in the back of the balance wheel.
