srminimo Report post Posted June 22, 2011 Hello friends After a LOOOOOOONG search for a machine I decided to get a Highlead machine and, of course, while at the store I saw a very nice used Seiko CW-8. Long story short, the guy at the store said he would recommend the Seiko over the Highlead (and I saved a little bundle, too). Does anybody know where I can find a manual for it or, if there is a similar machine whose manual I can use as a reference (I know Seiko actually did some Singer machines, maybe there is a comparable Singer model)? Kind regards flavio Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Art Report post Posted June 23, 2011 Hi Flavio, It is a lot like a Singer 153 and I think a lot of the parts interchange. However, Bill's at 301 Main Ave East, Hildebran, NC 28637, Tel: (828) 397-6941 is a big Seiko dealer and could probably help.

I thought it might be close to a 153, but I wasn't a 100%. So far so good, it has been working like a dream and I have been able to figure everything out, but I definitely want to have a reference manual. Thank you for the help on the Highlead, by the way, you had me convinced, but this seemed like a machine that would do everything I needed, solid, and the difference in money will probably get me enough material to have it pay for itself. Kind regards and again thanks for all the help. flavio Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
