Members Singermania Posted January 31, 2015 Members Report Posted January 31, 2015 HI Everyone, I've pulled an old Singer 169A72 out of mothballs and am looking for an operator manual for it. Its a binding machine but will also do a good job sewing leather as its a compound feed with reverse. I've a pretty good manual library but came up empty handed on this one. Would anyone out there have a manual of pdf that could be emailed? thanks Steve Quote
Members Constabulary Posted January 31, 2015 Members Report Posted January 31, 2015 same as the Adler 169 - as far as I know these were even built by Adler.

Members Singermania Posted February 1, 2015 Author Members Report Posted February 1, 2015 Hi, yes I forgot about the copies, I have a listing of Adler manuals but it lists 168 and 171 but no 169, Pfaff also did this machine as do the Chinese such as Cowboy CB227..... but I haven't located a manual as yet, if you happen to see the 169 manual pls let me know. Best Regards Steve Quote
Members Constabulary Posted February 1, 2015 Members Report Posted February 1, 2015 Got it wrong - it is the Adler 69 not the 169. The 169 is like the 227 type. Hope this helps: Adler 69 Manual.pdf Quote ~ Keep "OLD CAST IRON" alive - it´s worth it ~ Machines in use: - Singer 111G156 - Singer 307G2 - Singer 29K71 - Singer 212G141 - Singer 45D91 - Singer 132K6 - Singer 108W20 - Singer 51WSV2 - Singer 143W2
Members Constabulary Posted February 1, 2015 Members Report Posted February 1, 2015 (edited) this could be useful too BTW - check where Adler has manufactured their Class 69 - it´s mentioned in the manual (2008 copy) Adler 69 Service Manual.pdf Edited February 1, 2015 by Constabulary Quote ~ Keep "OLD CAST IRON" alive - it´s worth it ~ Machines in use: - Singer 111G156 - Singer 307G2 - Singer 29K71 - Singer 212G141 - Singer 45D91 - Singer 132K6 - Singer 108W20 - Singer 51WSV2 - Singer 143W2
Members Singermania Posted February 1, 2015 Author Members Report Posted February 1, 2015 aha... now I have them, thanks very much for that, didn't think to look at the Adler machine manual. Quote
Members shoepatcher Posted February 2, 2015 Members Report Posted February 2, 2015 Steve, Any of the later Singer machines manufactured with the letter A in the model number was manufactured by Adler. I have a Singer 144A203. It is the same as the Adler 220-50-73 machine I have. It's the same machine other than the nameplate. Parts list is an Adler part list. glenn Quote
