If it already has a clutch motor, I advise leaving it on. It is usually much easier to control the brake release on a clutch motor than a servo motor (I have both types on various machines). Since patchers are often hand wheeled, you don't want to have to fight the action of a motor to spin the hand wheel for precise stitching. Ok good advice. Nothing is on it right now. It was always used as a foot or hand crank. Does it hurt anything to dissable the brake on a servo motor? I have one on my Adler 69 and hate the brake. I was a little Leary of the patchers for what others said about them not being good stickers.. This thing actually lays down a pretty good stitch line.

The conversion will be complex because treadle bases aren't setup for industrial motors. My 30-7 is mounted on a steel power stand and has both a clutch motor and a speed reducer, which freewheel once I lightly press on the floor pedal. Turning on the motor makes it easier to spin the hand wheel on the front.
