Members Carrieanna1172 Posted March 7, 2015 Members Report Posted March 7, 2015 I'm going to try to include two videos of what the machine is doing Consew 227 I was using a 22 needle and 138 thread sewing Two 6 to 7 oz pieces of veg tan leather together I personally Felt like the needle and thread were to large for this but was following a chart I found online Anyway right out of the gate maybe 10 ugly stitches in it made funny noise like a gear stripping ? Any ideas I took stuff apart put back together tried to reset the timing ? The bobbin case is not turning properly and if you can see the videos the the two gears ? Teeth under the bobbin case are not Catching / connecting with each other trim.825033DA-9083-4780-8D7E-ABFD737648C9.MOV Quote

Contributing Member JLSleather Posted March 7, 2015 Contributing Member Report Posted March 7, 2015 Video too close and too quick for me. And you didn't say the model. That thing got a safety clutch?

Members Tejas Posted March 7, 2015 Members Report Posted March 7, 2015 There is a safety clutch according to the Consew 227 manuals that are too large to attach. Send a PM and I'll email the manuals. Quote
Members Carrieanna1172 Posted March 7, 2015 Author Members Report Posted March 7, 2015 Yes it has a safety clutch and its a 227 With no reverse Don't know if that matters The video said it was to big I had to trim it I will try posting a longer one Quote

Members pcox Posted March 8, 2015 Members Report Posted March 8, 2015 (edited) Looks to me like you need to move the gear on the bottom shaft closer to the hook gear . Loosen the screws and slide the gear into mesh with the hook gear make sure you don't rotate the gear on the shaft as you may change the timing. tighten the screws It most likely out of time as the teeth have been out of mesh Do you know how to time it"?

Members Constabulary Posted March 8, 2015 Members Report Posted March 8, 2015 (edited) Check if one of the set screws is loose and rubbing on a gear. Turn the fly wheel by hand and watch the gears. If not I would say Pcox is rigth Edited March 8, 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 Carrieanna1172 Posted March 8, 2015 Author Members Report Posted March 8, 2015 (edited) I do not know how to set the timing The bobbin case is not turning and I can see and where the two gear underneath are not catching or connecting with each other If I rotate the bobbin by hand then step on the peddle the connect for a couple of turns and then the bobbin stops turning and I can hear the gears grazing each other Edited March 8, 2015 by Carrieanna1172 Quote
Members SARK9 Posted March 8, 2015 Members Report Posted March 8, 2015 The machine's bobbin/hook assembly is probably completely out of time, so simply re-establishing the gears in mesh will not fix the problems now. It must have had a set screw that wasn't completely tightened. Timing these machines is not too difficult if you have good instructions and want to learn how. Take it one step at a time in the correct order. As long as you check the operation by hand power only, and take it easy, you can just do it over until its perfect with no harm done. -DC Quote Machines: Juki LU-563, Consew 206-RB5, Singer 20U33, Pfaff 481, Mitsubishi CU-865-22, Consew 29B, Rebadged Juki LU-562, Mitsubishi LS2-180, Seiko SK-6, Juki LG-158-1
