Chinese Shoe Patcher, Parts And Instructions

Recommended Posts

I am only mentioning this here because there have been a few threads about the crude little Chinese patchers. In the last few days I have listed a range of spare parts, accessories, bobbin winder and manual on my ebay store;

http://stores.ebay.com.au/Able-Sewing/ABLE290-/_i.html?_fsub=6149943015&_sid=47422815&_trksid=p4634.c0.m322

Despite being rather crude these machines work very well when they are set up properly and the manual will help. If you are looking at buying a full kit then email me direct darren@ablesewing.com.au and I will do you a better price.

To anyone who sells this machine please note that the manual is subject to copywrite and legal action will be taken if I find that my manual has been copied in part or full.

Will the drill kit work in america? The plugs look different.

Good luck taking legal action on a copywrite. See link below.

The drill is not included in the kit - you supply your own.

You would need to change the plugs on the foot control to suit the US

Is it difficult to change the plugs? I assume just snip the old one off and hook up one from the local hardware store, right?

Might be easier to use a plug adapter. These can be bought at luggage/travel stores.

On the subject of the crude Chinese patches. I have one and it is brilliant. I have mine set up for just a few applications and it stitches like a little champion. For the price you can't go wrong.

I have a paralegal degree and was working on a Masters in Modern Language (when I was hit by a car), so I was probably your maximum 'target audience' for seeing the humor in it.

I would have thought the OP would have figured it out.

This is an old thread I just found.

Link no longer works.

I have one of those Chinese cobbler machines but can't get it to work. Is there a website for the manual, a PDF? 

Thanks.

I found this manual that seems like it might be a good manual at https://www.scribd.com/document/486330576/China-patcher-users-manual71719-pdf

I setup an acct (free), uploaded a different manual and it allowed me to download China Patcher Users Manual71719 PDF 13 page manual.  Just glancing at the manual it seems like it might be the best around.  I also have a pdf copy of the manual that comes with the machine - as you'd expect it's a poor manual.

Since you're new to the machine you might like to look at the facebook group for the machine - it's active and some good folks to help.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/1646031288779869/questions

I sure wish they'd move the group form FB to a real forum - that would be MUCH easier to read, and find old posts.

I just realized I could attach a file - so it's attached and you don't have to fool with the scribd place.

As @Frodo said, that's the guy that I got all the adjustments from, but in order for anything to work that was my biggest frustration from the start was taking the hook and bottom carrier out and getting all the black crap off it. You'll never get it to work till it's sanded and buffed completely smooth. @chuck123wapati is the latest to get one working so plenty of people here got one and have gone through everything to get working

 Edited you take  anything apart

turn the crank so that the handle is in the 12 o’clock position

take a picture of the orientation of the  2 cams  in relation to the 12 o’clock handle

this picture wil be of help at a later time . At the same time

open  the bobbin door and take a picture of the orientation of the bobbin carrier hook in relation with the needle while the handle on the crank is at 12 oclock
