Members George1520 Posted April 2, 2019 Members Report Posted April 2, 2019 I’m not buying that one, and I don’t have the money to ship it or buy it from a dealer. The one I’m looking at is local and probably from the 40’s or 50’s, most likely without safety standards. If I get it, I will ad a second switch if I figure out how to do it. Since it runs on momentum it will probably not be electric. Quote
Members George1520 Posted April 3, 2019 Members Report Posted April 3, 2019 Are there replacement parts available? My biggest concern is the clutch. Does it need to be replaced? Thanks Quote
Members ozziesleathers Posted June 5, 2019 Members Report Posted June 5, 2019 Here is a manual for the Model C. I have 3 of these clickers and have done 1/2 million clicks with them.

That cleaned up wonderfully. That is an Ideal Model C clicker by USM. The produced 1000s' of these. Yours should have about 1" of travel on the head. I think these were about a 10 ton power in cutting. I have seen them retro fitted with another switch so that it took two hands to engage the machine. A lot of guys lost fingers on these things. glenn Glen, would you mind making a copy of the manual once you find it? I’ve recently acquired one of these myself! Never mind @shoepatcher I see the link above! is there an operators manual? Edited May 25, 2020 by turbotexas Quote
JJN Posted May 25, 2020 Author Report Posted May 25, 2020 @turbotexas Glenn sent me a xerox copy of the instruction manual. I have not scanned the entire manual yet, but I do have some of the pages scanned that goes over the adjustments. It is too big to upload here so here is a link. http://johnsr.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/clicker-instructions.pdf John Quote Ferdco Juki Pro-2000, Juki DNU-1541S, LS-1341, LU-563, DLN-9010A-SH, MO-6714S, Consew 206RB, 206RB-1, Chandler/Bernina 217 6mm w/Cam Reader, Brother LT2-B842-5

Members DavidMillsSaddlery Posted May 26, 2020 Members Report Posted May 26, 2020 Anyone have a video of the back side while it’s working? Quote
Members DavidMillsSaddlery Posted May 31, 2020 Members Report Posted May 31, 2020 Well I got mine home and unloaded! This piece had fallen off while the previous owner had it! It’s missing a square nut as well! Reverse thread! Not sure if I’ll be able to find one? now I just need to figure out where it goes! Quote
