Necchi 543?
Hi! I bought a Necchi at Goodwill recently. The nameplate says Electra Super SX-4000, but I can't find any info at all on that name. It looks similar to the Necchi 543 I saw on a sewing machine parts site (picture from the manual). This one came without a manual. I bought it because it's so pretty! I would post a picture but have not figured out yet how to do so.
Has anyone ever heard of this machine? It was made in Japan, it says. I can't find any of the standard numbers on it. I want to clean and oil it, then try it out. I watched the video on how to clean a vintage machine and realized this isn't really very vintage. Only about as old as my kids!
Thank you!
Margaret

Thank you both! It looks most like the 543. I think I will go ahead and order the manual, which covers 541 and 543 - I'll have a 67% chance of being right, and I'm sure I can work with it regardless. But church comes first. I'll sneak in a prayer for keen eyes and steady hands! Have a lovely Sunday!
