Members Hoowzer Posted August 17, 2019 Author Members Report Posted August 17, 2019 So I think we'll try to get a Family Sew Fs 550S Motor installed on here, however, does anyone have thoughts on how this should be mounted? I've tried to find instructions or videos to no avail. Quote
Members Constabulary Posted August 17, 2019 Members Report Posted August 17, 2019 (edited) The treadle stand actually is an ADLER 30 stand. There was a motor mount for this stand. I never owned one but have a few pictures. maybe it gives you an idea for a DIY mount or so. When you have a FS550 motor you can mount it on the underside and the drive belt goes from the motor pulley to the large pulley on the stand. When you are buying a servo motor similar to the JACK JK-513A you also can mount the motor upside down on top of the motor mount (or bolt the motor directly to lower the machine body) and mount the accelerator unit underneath the mount. This way you can leave out the heavy pulley. Just wanted to give you another idea... Choice is yours Edited August 17, 2019 by Constabulary Quote ~ Keep "OLD CAST IRON" alive - it´s worth it ~ Machines in use: - Singer 111G156 - Singer 307G2 - Singer 29K71 - Singer 212G141 - Singer 45D91 - Singer 132K6 - Singer 108W20 - Singer 51WSV2 - Singer 143W2
Members Hoowzer Posted August 18, 2019 Author Members Report Posted August 18, 2019 Thank you. This is helpful. Will see what we can do to potentially mount a motor! Quote
