Members gaRYW5 Posted December 10, 2012 Members Report Posted December 10, 2012 I'm looking for a user manual for a 31-17 Singer. Need to know how to set the depth of the needle shaft I guess that is what it's called. Had to pull the shaft out and replace it and it wasn't in the right position to begin with. Appreciate any help. Thanks Quote
CowboyBob Posted December 10, 2012 Report Posted December 10, 2012 Set it so that the point of the shuttle passes about 1/8" above the top of the eye of the needle as you turn the machine in the direction that it runs.

Thanks Well, keep your eyes open. You might find them on Ebay or Etsy. Quote A teacher pointed at me with a ruler and said "At the end of this ruler is an idiot."
