Some pictures of the manuals. Original 132K and 133K are rare as the hens teeth!

For these 3 I have no use so if someone is interested. I´d trade or sell them.

Now regarding the feed dogs for the 132K and 133K - I have 2 different statements from dealers - one says the 132K feed dogs DO NOT fit for the 133K and the other says they DO fit.

So maybe someone can shed some light on this as I don´t like buying parts "just to try" and then returning them because they don´t fit.

Wow, you've done well, I"ve never seen the manuals for the 133K8 and 17, would be interested in them or a copy. I don't know what I'd have to trade? Regards Steve

Just have sold the 2 132K manuals but I will keep the 133K8 manual. But I will scan it and post it here sooner or later so you can download it.

I´m still looking for someone who can answer if the 132K and 133K take the same feed dog or if they have at least the same distance between the 2 screws.

small update. I finally have installed a new feed dog as I had some issues with inconstant stitches because of worn off teeth.

For the records and those who might care:

The original feed dog that came with the 133K3 has part # 98402

I actually found one but it would have cost me £58.05 + shipping :wacko: (thats about $90 + shipping) so I have ordered a feed dog with parts # 97625 which was just £5. It actually fits BUT the tooth part of the # 97625 is about 2mm flatter. I could probably lift the feeding mechanism but I don´t want to mess with the timing so I just put 2mm Delrin under the new feed dog and grind down the needle plate on the inside a little bit - voila - it works perfect.

Nice stitching - perfect feeding - I´m very pleased! :)

Yes, I like it very much! Next thing will be a "custom" harness foot with short heel I´m planing to make as I sometimes have to sew box tacks close to heavy hardware. Similar to this one:

VanRhodes - How is your project going? :)

I too have such plans for the presser feet of my machine. Its progressing but slowly, I dont have alot of time to put into it at the moment and I dont have any machines of my own to work with metal wich makes me depending on other people and their busy schedule. But I have been test sewing with it basicly just testing it in different types and thicknesses of webbing and I am happy to say that I have no issue making perfect stitches with #6 cord(415) through 25mm of heavy webbing and I dont think I will have any issues with #8 cord(554) either. I've also been playing with the idea of building an X and Y axis with step-motors for the machine with the help of another friend of mine but thats a project for the future :)

What type of bobbin is used in your 133 btw? Is it one of those very large normal bobbins and not a shuttle?
