    I know how to wind a bobbin, but I can't figure out how to disengage the clutch. The wheel on the right doesn't pull out.

    I dont see why you couldnt put a walking foot on it. The serger side probably not though.

    I just obtained one of these great machines, and it needs a new belt. The service manual for the machine does not address belt replacement. I've taken all of the covers off except for the serger end where the belt is located and can't figure out how to get that off. Can you help?

    I dont have this machine no more but if I recall the belt is in the mainbody between the sewing and serger sides. I belive you gotta pull drive shafts to replace it. It wouldnt be a fun job at all. I dont envy you if you get a new belt in it.

    Those are good questions I no longer own this machine so I cant tell you every thing. But I can tell you it was a Low shank machine. Far as what foot for button holing Im not sure as mine came with all its feet including the button hole foot. Since I no longer own it I cant measure it for you :(

    Im sorry for the Delayed Responce I had no idea youtube was holding the comments until now. It would be a neat machine but there would be better machines then this on in my opinion. Try a 15-91 or other simple SS only machines. There cheap. There quality. And there Every where.

    If your talking about the 2 thread serger side then the looper should catch the thread. With out seeing it my self im not sure.

    Good question. I so happen to come across it. I didnt keep it and sold it. You can always try ebay. Other then that ive only seen one of them. And Very few videos so I made videos of it before I sold it.
