I Picked Up A Luberto Classic

[Kustom]

I got a new to me Luberto Classic. I got the book with it, but not the DVD. The stitch is very pretty except when I try to use the stirrup plate. It leaves deep marks on the leather. I take it, it has something to do with the plate taking up room and the jump foot staying the same pressure. How do I adjust the pressure on the jump foot? Thanks in advance.

Just a guess on my part because i don't know anything about your machine, would be loosen the nut on the curved spring looking piece in the last picture.

I don't think so, The book tells how to do it, but I don't have it here at the house. Try sewing on it dry before you tear into it. Those classics like dry leather and I have never had a problem with mine marking leather badly even with the stirrup plate. Great Machine. Ken

Thanks Ken. I only sew dry leather. I've searched the book over and over, but don't see anything about adjusting the pressure on the jump foot. I was thinking about taking the spring on the top off and putting a couple washer between it and the frame to raise it up. What do you think?

That would probably do it, Been hearing Tony Luberto has been hard to find, which I am sure he could and would let you know for sure. Nice fellow. I will check my manual at work today. Will let you know if I find anything this evening. Ken

My girlfriend wanted me to put it in the garage. I told her no way, so we settled on the guest room.
