Members klutes Posted June 2, 2019 Members Report Posted June 2, 2019 Well I just got home with my new to sewing machine. Was able to locate it within 30 min of me. It seems to be in good condition. Sews good on test runs. New learning curve on new machine.. trying to figure out why it is set up with a 135x16 -24 system when all the info I can on it says it is suppose to use a 134-35 needle system ?. Anyone know the difference in the two needle systems ? Quote Machines: Adler 69 , Adler 30-7, Adler 467, Cowboy bell skiver, Beilers embossing machine
Members klutes Posted June 2, 2019 Author Members Report Posted June 2, 2019 ok I found the difference in the two different needle systems. Only difference is the grind on the point one bring 3 and the other a 4 point grind. Quote Machines: Adler 69 , Adler 30-7, Adler 467, Cowboy bell skiver, Beilers embossing machine
Members shoepatcher Posted June 2, 2019 Members Report Posted June 2, 2019 The 135x16 is 1/3 the height of the eye longer from top of eye to top of shank and the point from the bottom of the eye to the tip is ever so slightly longer. I set up my two Adler's with 135x17 needles because they come in more sizes, titanium coated I can get in size #180 vs. #160 for 134-35. To use 135x17 needles, I have to adjust the needle bar ever so slightly. This way, I only need to carry one system of needle for most all my machines, i.e. Juki. singer, Adler. Quote
