Members Wishful Posted August 24, 2014 Members Report Posted August 24, 2014 I was refurbishing a Singer 111w155 and a part fell out. It appears to be the rod release (235576) but I cannot figure out where it goes. All seems to be working ok but left over parts worry me . Any ideas or pix? Quote
Members Constabulary Posted August 24, 2014 Members Report Posted August 24, 2014 A picture of the part would help to ID. I don´t have all part # in mind. But I´d assume it is one of the pins the releases the tension disc. If it is a tiny pin that looks a bit like mushroom it sits in the tension assembly inside the post that holds the discs, spring and nut. If is is a longer pin it sits inside the machine and goes from back to front and pushes against the lever of the tension disc assembly when you lift the foot. If not - post a picture.

Members Wishful Posted August 24, 2014 Author Members Report Posted August 24, 2014 Yes, you are correct that it is the longer pin for the tension disc assembly - figured it just after posting but I appreciate your response. SO, does anything actually attach and hold it in os is it just the pressure from the tension disk assembly? Regards. Quote
Members Constabulary Posted August 24, 2014 Members Report Posted August 24, 2014 It sits loose in a small tunnel inside the body, just remove the tension assembly and put it back in.
