Are you using a large cone of thread such as would be used on an overlocker? If so, yes you will have problems on a domestic sewing machine. Either run some thread off to fill a bobbin and then use this on the top of the machine. Or buy thread in a thousand metre spool and use this, its better quality thread and certainly easier to place on the machine 's spool holder.

If you really want to use the bulk cone, then you probably need to buy one of these to make it possible. I hope I've understood your problem. If you need threading diagrams for your Singer then go to their website and download your manual, most are there. Jun 03, 2011 . A 1919 overlocker, I would be happy to take a look at the photos of the machine.take several with the needle in the top, middle (both) and bottom positions so the full cycle can be seen and I will see what we can do for you.what a treat! The relationships of needle to looper and looper to looper are the most critical.in the meantime.if you can figure out how to thread it up, use 3 different colours of thread, do a test piece and adjust the tensions as required to create a firm and balanced stitch that meets at the edge neatly.if there is any corrosion on the tension plates, it will need to be polished smooth to effect consistent tension and therefore stitching.same applies to loopers and thread guides.

I have just been bitten by the sewing machine, which is shouldering through the chainsaws for attention. Since I sidelined my old Elna carina by stripping a gear, I have been reworking and using a thousand-pound Rikkkar portable, late sixties maybe, and a Jaguar Kenmore 1345. They are much cleaner that the saws, I must say. Now I found a Singer 401a in a table, complete, in good condition.

I looked on ebay and found this very manual for sale, paper photo copy, $12 +$3 shipping. So Thank You. Spending a dollar on a free machine is like a dillion percent increase in cost. I am a donald too but I go by Don. People used to use 3-in-1 oil, and other non-sewing machine oils to lubricate their machines.

Over decades a sticky varnish will develop that gums up the mechanisms. If you take off the covers of your machine, the moving parts should be grey, silver or greasy black. If they are covered in a brown shellac-looking gunk, you have a varnish problem. Patience, time, heat (blow dryer), and tri-flow lubricant (or other high-quality oil) applied to the sticky parts are your best cure. Apply oil, warm with the blow dryer, work the mechanisms, more oil, wait, repeat, repeat, repeat, etc.

P atience is vital. It may take several days to loosen up something that hasn’t moved in 30 years. Avoid the temptation to use strong solvents, or to take apart any of the finely-synchronized mechanisms, unless you are absolutely sure you know how to set the timing on your sewing machine again.

Thank you Santa! I recently obtained a 401a from an Estate sale and it had been unused in a shed since 1968.

Rita, the prior owner, was apparently quite a smoker. My friend and I have been Rehabing this machine and stripping away the tar and nicotine stains with Hoppes no 9 gun cleaner- which, by the way, works like a DREAM without damaging any of the painted or metal surfaces in any way! When I saw it in their garage, it was covered with a layer of felted grime from years of disuse after being in a heavy smoker’s home. The inside had gummed up with old grease which had turned green.

I still need to take apart the tensioner and other adjustment parts on the machine to clean each metal part to remove the grime and tar. But now it’s running and I have a COMPLETE 401a with attachments and a Cabinet.

I can’t wait to finish digging in to clean her up and eventually- SEW on it! But without this manual It would have been a lot of trial and error. (mostly error I suspect.) I really really appreciate your posting these resources and hope to one day soon repay your kindness with a scanned touch and sew machine manual that came with an attachment set as a bonus part of the auction! EBay CAN sometimes be helpful! Now all I need is access to a scanner and my EVIL plan will be semi complete!
