hairybiker Report post Posted January 22, 2013 hi all, not sure if anybody can help but i have a 29k53 and i am having problems with top thred looping and snaging on bobbin,i am now starting to think that the pinion gears are worn to excess which may be the cause,i have read that these gears for the 29k53 are not available-is this true and if so will any other machine bar(think thats what its called)fit this machine?any help would be appreciated as i am starting to loose the will to continue with this machine and i think it would be a horrible door stop.

celticleather Report post Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) You may find what you're looking for here: https://www.college-...ngMachineParts. Try dropping them an email with the model and serial number of the machine, and they'll let you know if they have the parts you need. Many 29K parts are interchangeable.

Sherkhan1962 Report post Posted January 29, 2013 Hi, searching info about the 29K the other day (I'm actually looking for one to replace my 99K that badly fell in the staircase - the handle of the ******* wooden case broke while descending ), I found this site: http://www.sew-europe.co.uk/parts_29K.htm With this quote: Internal Parts are Still Available and can be supplied on a 'Special Order' Check out the PARTS BOOK or Please Contact Us for Price & Availability. Normally you should succeed with them.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
