Only was allowed to be in shadowed in tool cabinet at Helicopter company I worked at, no channel lock brand was allowed and Knipex has flat wrench style adjustable jaws. Quote

Members ASAuLTCases Posted May 24, 2020 Members Report Posted May 24, 2020 Hi Squirrel 42, I've just join because i noticed when i was just looking things up on the net and i don't think anyone noticed or said about your machine? in your first photo the one pointing at a screw you can move, on the far side of the machine there is a cam-arm that should be connected to this side of the machine, this may sound odd but i am going by my new to me 211g166 with reverse = that cam-arm comes from the safety clutch area and over to the reverse mechanism, but even though you don't have reverse i have all so noticed it on service drawings for the 211g165, so i am not to sure what it actually does,, there was also another screw loose but you have probably put it all together now and up and running, I've had mine about 2 weeks, it was dry as a bone and all the timings were out because it seemed like it had all ways been rectified by adjusting in one direction until certain parts had nowhere left to go, so when i came along wanting to centre it around a 160 needle all the toy came out this singers cot, i was very worried i had brought a nail, but studying the service manual and parts manual, being careful to read every word like the needle bar adjustment for a bar without the mark and with a mark, i was moving mine with a mark the 2.4mm. are well i can set the lot up now lol, going back to that cam-arm, i had to slightly "well that's all you can do" move it away from the one next to it when its in place because it would catch it when it travelled, anyway all the best and hope its sorted, cus mine runs great now and zipped along 9 layers of c-tan ap-leather like butter with a clutch motor i mean fast, i have a 40mm motor pulley when i get a shorter belt, nearly as fast as my old singer 96k i forgot last 2 numbers but industrial, not walking foot but with leather needles, it had no problem with any leather, but even with 3 pulley gears as slow as possible it was mental with a bigger needle working area, these 11 series are tight in garment cluster room i notice doing some leather on denim jeans, i spouse new clothing is stitched in order and laid flat, i have a JUST BIKERS leather Belstaff style 3/4 coat with 4 front outside square pockets that i would never get under the 211, I've got my chinky coBbler for that LOL, HOW THE F##K ANYONE CAN THINK THE CHINESE SPREAD COV19 ALL OVER THE WORLD IN 2 WEEKS WHEN YOU HAVE TO WAIT 2 MONTHS FOR A PACK OF NEEDLES?

Members Squirrel42 Posted June 15, 2020 Author Members Report Posted June 15, 2020 Can someone reply with the measurement of the vibrating presser foot bar and the lifting presser foot Bar max spread during movement at 3 1/2 or 5 stitches per inch? My bar is still not moving hardly regardless of setting 0 or 25 SPI. I took apart the whole bar and shaft assy and cleaned up parts and can move it by hand back n forth, but tighten the screw in front of the safety clutch On the feed dog/essentric shaft. Should I adjust the Feed essentric or loosen it even though no play? Or just order a new assy including the arm next to it? Quote
Members Squirrel42 Posted June 30, 2020 Author Members Report Posted June 30, 2020 Got the walking bar moving as it should but only can get 7 SPI using a piece of cardboard and measuring. The number wheel is all out of whack, bottoms out at 14 but is to be at max stitch length. Also maybe timing still off as 138 thread is not working/catching the 135X17 #22 Needle. And feed dog keeps coming loose cause of the two little screws Below, + my feed dog plate is missing the two screws so will have to find where sold. love the new Servo motor though and after cleaning, painting and reassembling The treadle n parts, the Action is smooth.
