Kenmore 158.13500
Does anyone know where I can download a manual for the Kenmore 158.13500 sewing machine? I purchased one at a city wide garage sale. I really only bought it for the cabinet for my Daughter-in-law, but I took the machine just to see if it would work, etc . Works great but there are some things I'd like to know about it and of course there was no manual. I don't even know what year it was made. BTW only paid $20 for all. Any info will help, Thanks

There is a vintage Kenmore yahoo group which I belong to. I think you can download one from there or someone on there can give you a link.
Hi minga,
I downloaded a manual for my Kenmore 158.1430 but can't remember right now where I found it. Will check around and see if I can find the source.

Nancy,
Try Relics as well. They've got a gazillion manuals. http://www.tias.com/stores/relics/

I Google everything. I have a 158 also in the cabinet. Weighs about 40 pounds, right? There was one on E-Bay and the current price at the time was 168.00 I couldn't find a year on it though. I am thinking 50 -60's.
Anyways, like you, I didn't have a manual either, so I just Googled: "Sears Kenmore Sewing Manual". Let me know if this works for you, because I got a website that seemed to have ALL kinds of manuals for sewing machines!!)
All of the suggestions are great. Thanks to all for your help. Sears Kenmore site has actual manuals which if probably the one to get but it costs a little more. Just need to decide which to download. Thanks to all.
