Dear all,

I am writing from Zurich, Switzerland. I was able to get an Adler 5-8 for free with table, motor, and numerous spare parts. For free :). While I love old machines (and that’s the reasons I got it), I have no experience with sewing machines. I am intending to restore the table and work a bit on the machine, but before I do I would like to check if it’s fully functional. I picked it up because I am afraid otherwise it would have gone to trash. Breaks my heart to see old machines like this go to the dumpster.

hence my questions: 

— is there still a pdf copy of the manual somewhere in this forum? If so, would you mind sharing it with me? Return to sander at gmail dot com, all written together.

— any hints/experience with what are the most delicate parts on this machine? Meaning: where would I likely encounter issues? I can spin the wheel and the needle moves up and down smoothly and the little metal „children surprise egg“ is spinning in the arm. So the Maschine is Not „Stuck“. But beyond that, I am currently lost. I realize you may say: this guy has no clue, where should I start?  You are absolutely right

Thanks let’s hope I get this eagle to fly

Grüezi in die Schweiz,

If you don´t mind please post some pictures of your machine and the accessories. There is not much documentation on there web and this is the best place to share information, pictures and experiences. But please open a new thread for this.

And as a reward I will send you a German language manual and a sales brochure - how is that? Give and take

Sounds like a good deal

issue is: I have already lifted the 5-8 from the table and took parts of the table apart.  But I can send separate images. You prefer more images of the Maschine, the table, the stuff that came with it, or all? Will be tonight though (after Corona home office ...)  Merci, MS

[MSadler]

I forgot, I already took two images

[MSadler]

I will send more images later and open a new thread for that.

Ok, I opened a new thread with photos, as discussed here. Thanks again, MSAdler
