Thanks Wiz, Yes brand new from Toledo,I've had it 3 weeks, keeping the speed knob@ 1/2. I've learned to use the hand wheel to give a kick start on thicker leather, I guess I need more practice finding the sweet spot with my foot control, have been keeping it oiled, the tiny holes inside face plate ? I better look for them.

Someone ask for specs on this motor we sell here's what I have.

Thanks for all of the replies!

I think I am going to try the Enduro Pro 650 with the positioner option. The needle will stop in the down position and with one tap on the heel of the pedal the needle move back up. I have not experience with this yet but I understand that this helps the control of the stitch when sewing around a tight corner.

From the specs it is an 800 watt motor which is to most powerful motor on the market that I have found that operates at 110v.

However I may find like many others that I will need to add a speed reducer.

Any suggestions on brands would be great...

Thanks again gang for reading and responding!

Make sure that the motor has slow speeds below 200 rpm. I saw one of those brand in a video and it dropped out at about 200.

Thanks for the advice Wiz!

Are you running with a speed reducer?

All

I watched the video below...on the SewPro500

The SewPro 500 comes with a 3:1 gear reduction built in.

So I am guessing that the Family Sew Servo motor must have a gear reduction built in as well....?

Thanks

Not on my walking foot or straight stitch machines. I only have a speed reducer/torque multiplier on my big Cowboy CB4500 harness stitcher.

Ok thanks Wiz! I guess I still need to do some head scratching.
