Do you mean a Chandler 305-64?   I do not know of a 303-64.  If so, that was  made in Japan by the old Chandler Company out of New York after they lost the Adler distribution right to sell Adler's here in this country.  Copy of an Adler 105-64.  I believe some Adler  parts are still available. Can we see pics of the machine?

Thats thingy on the face plate top - if your machine has no tension release I think you can buy one for the GA5-1 type machines. Not sure if the threading is the same but thats should not be an issue - that at least is the most economic solution IMO.

Maybe you need a heavier spring

When you click to reply, look at the bottom of the reply frame. There is a paperclip icon next to the words: "Drag files here to attach, or *choose flies*"

Note, you may have to take the picture at the smallest resolution to keep within our file size limit. There is a post about posting and reducing the file size of images in our Computer Help section.
