Members BlackHorses Posted January 5, 2009 Members Report Posted January 5, 2009 Help! Does anyone out there have a manual for the Union Lockstitch machine? I purchased a machine but it didn't come with a manual. I can run the machine but it would be nice to have a little more info on it. Please let me know. Quote

Elton Joorisity Posted January 6, 2009 Report Posted January 6, 2009 (edited) Call Weaver's Machinery sales dept at 1800 932 8371 and they may be able to help you, as they sell many parts for them as well as reconditioned ones from time to time Edited January 6, 2009 by Elton Joorisity Quote
Moderator Art Posted January 6, 2009 Moderator Report Posted January 6, 2009 You might also want to try Smucker's or Weaver. The Amish use the dickens out of those for harness. Phone: 1-717-445-5956 for Mose Smucker while they are still in business. Art Help! Does anyone out there have a manual for the Union Lockstitch machine?

Your Welcome ,the credit goes to Campbell-Randall for making it,yes, the original 3 pages sure left a lot to be desired. Quote
Moderator Wizcrafts Posted February 22, 2019 Moderator Report Posted February 22, 2019 When I got my first Union Lockstitch machine it didn't have a manual. I had to locate a harness maker that had a ULS and he was kind enough to photocopy his manual for me. I learned to thread and run the machine from that simple yellow manual. The fine tuning came with experience, experimentation and lots of bent needles. There are few devices that can match the awesome clapping and clanging sound of a Union Lockstitch machine sewing at full speed! Quote

Thank you Cowboy Bob. Thank you CowboyBob! I stumbled onto that one as well! I was hoping to find one with parts numbers etc as well! I see a trip to Conroe Texas in my future! Dang them for moving out of Youkum! That was 65 miles from me! Now they're 165 or so! David Mills 11 hours ago, Wizcrafts said: When I got my first Union Lockstitch machine it didn't have a manual.

No. It went with the machine when I sold it in 2011. Besides, the online pdf is easier to understand, despite the typos. Quote

That's so true! I can identify the sound before I even see the machine! Quote
