Members Gerald Whitehurst Posted November 29, 2023 Members Report Posted November 29, 2023 hey there, I happened to find this post via a Google query as I am trying to find any info on how to adjust the stitch length of my Adler 30-70. I bought the machine last year for $500, came with the Sutton pedestal base. I've had it sitting all this time and just got it running quite smoothly once I cleaned and oiled her up good. however, the stitch length seems Very short to me and I haven't found any adjustment procedure yet. any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks!

Jerr @Gerald WhitehurstJust above the foot is the stitch length adjuster,loosen the screw & slide it down for a longer stitch.

Is it the new "square" head Gray color machine, or the old green "round" head ? I have something for the new machine, for the old I have only the part-list. The new Adler class 30 is made on license by SL special sewing machine Germany http://www.sl-spezial.de/sl/index.php/shoe-repair.html , Perhaps they have some more info. Otherwise in the blog of Thomas Brinkhoff (Head of spare-parts DA) http://sew24.blogspot.no/p/downloads.html you will find the manual and part list here. Be patient and let the download finish, it takes time to download. If you have the old machine I have the part-list, just PM your email address and I will send it to you. The rest of what I have you will find in the links above. You can also use (user) manuals on the Singer 29K- 72 or the ones for the Singer 29U171A_172A_173A (the file format of the 29U machine in the Singers web site). The last one is a very good operator and service manual and very similar to the Adler class 30. (The machine is not made to sew as heavy as tex 207 thread, on a test piece with lighter bobbin thread; maybe. In real time repair sewing..... you will have stitch errors. Not that many before you are out of bobbin thread, that is ) Good luck Tor Dear Trox: I recently acquired an Adler 70-30 leather stitcher. I have been getting acquainted with this beautiful machine, to my best ability. However, I can not seem to figure out how to wind a bobin! Please help!? Thank you, Amy. Quote
