Plymouthy Adams Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 By chance anyone here have one of these models? Am looking to see what style needle screw I should have on my unit. At pressent it is a flathead screw and was thinking a thumbscrew may be more apporpriate. Also if possible a picture of the lower thread guide that is the lower extreme of the needle bar. The printable online parts books are not very clear photos. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnsartain Posted December 19, 2017 Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 (edited) You might try one from a Singer Home model if you can find a parts book for it. Maybe try a Fabric outlet or hobby store. All of the commercial models I have ever seen had a Flat head machine screw. I worked as a sewing machine mechanic from 1978 - 1988 and the moved to automated apparel equipment till 1998. I left that when apparel moved off shore and went into computers and networks. They tended to stay away form anything more than a machine screw because of the OSHA requirement for a needle guard. I also did a couple short stints in Furniture and Upholstery.
