WOW Nice machine and great video. Love your enthusiasm and excitement, I would be too.
I am looking for a good one myself. Thanks for sharing.
Wow! Someone gave me a few machines including one like this. I use to design 20 years ago. Just getting back into it starting with upholstery. I'm inspired and will be setting mine up in the morn. Thx.
Thanks for the information I need a oil pan for mine before I can use it thanks again
This is a strong and durable machine. This machine has no. reverse but it is a machine for. .more. than a. lifetime. Blessings
I had a machine just like that one for many years. It is a real workhorse. I bought mine used from Jansport after working in their factory in the 1980s. The proper way to backstitch with that machine for reinforcing is to lift the presser foot up a tiny bit with your knee and manually move the fabric towards you for a few stitches (still sewing) and then let the presser foot go back down and stitch over it again. That is how I was trained to do it in the Jansport factory. Once you learn how to do it, and practice some, it is very easy. The trick is not to lift the presser foot high enough to not be making stitches. Good luck with that.
The old industrials are the best, if you are lucky enough to find one. You don't need to wait a minute at startup for the oil. The oil pump only runs when the machine is sewing. It runs off the main machine shaft, not the motor unit.
Would you have any oil pans in your inventory thanks
Dang! I just got one this afternoon. It was on Craigslist and I was looking for one just casually. I found it, googled to this video and I was like, I'm going to go get it. 6000 stitches per minute... Yeah I'll believe it. Came with oil and it pumps up. I just watched another video of this thing stitching 1/4" thick stack of vinyl. So I'm going to be using it for leather. Thanks for the vid. Specially the start up sound. By the way, the motor doesn't pump anything at all. It's the actual pulley turning that pumps oil...so you gotta use it to let the lube go up. Just don't load it for a few seconds of fast turns.
Your going to love your new toy!!! Post a video pleae!
Nice machine.
Immediate oil is not critical. Oiler soaks wicks throughout machine. Wicks hold oil, they rest against moving parts, that is how machime gets lubricated
👍👍 la máquina puede usar doble Abuja??
I bought mine for $20 from a yard sale and still havent used it
Hola buen día yo tengo una haci me la entregaron sin el depósito para el aceite y no lo puedo encontrar se puede usar haci o no lo lleva??
Linda la plana.felicidades.
Get a sailrite servo motor for better speed control. I just refurbished one of these.
I have one of these and I can not seem to get it to slow down I try to barely mash the foot pedal and it goes way too fast and either breaks the needle or just messes up because I can’t control it. Is there any Type adjustment for the foot pedals so that it doesn’t so quite so fast?
Just keep practicing and be patient with yourself. It takes time to work an industrial machine. Hope that helps.
You need to put a servo motor on they cost about120 dollars it will work great
all you have to do is take the motor drive pulley off and install a smaller one
Shame will have to junk the one my mother owned. Have exact model that still works. Have to get rid of it and willing to give away, but someone would have to pick it up in SF Chinatown.
What city and state are you in maybe someone will read this post and pick it up.
San Francisco, CA in Chinatown.
@@harrywong4094 you should def offer this up for someone! A young fashion student would love one of these, I hope u found a good home for it. I might know someone in your area that might want it, if u have not.
Awesome machine!!! How do you change the stitch length?
You have to click the button on the top and turn the wheel to get the stitch length to change.
i really like your video i just buy a sewing machine similar too yours and I would just know if someone would help me restore it
Try your local shop they should be able to help.
Don't spray paint it
💓 Please spanish!!😊
