That is a very neat machine. I hope you find out more info. There is a Singer BlogSpot and the people there seem to know a lot about all types of machines. They may can help you even though their focus is Singer. http://vssmb.blogspot.com/

Thank you for posting the picture of the badge. I saw some sites that have parts for hb500 but no pictures of the machine. What do you use the machine for? Did your machine come with a manual? Is there a website in Mexico for this machine?

Janey - Neat people never make the exciting discoveries I do.

Thank .....no there is no manual.....Husband found it in some store when we were looking for somethjng else...
Since it has the free arm and walking feet (won,t accept any other feet I am afraid...) I decided I want it....
They didn,t know anything about this machine in the store and no manual.....
It sure sew so very strong that is scary....Husband finally lower the velocity for me and built me an extention table.......I only sew the dogs blankets so far with it ( they never complain ...) and two days ago...made the stitch in the ditch first baby quilt...... I can sure use any help with it...how to make more accurancy....especially while fastening....it doesn,t go straign while going back but instead make some zig zag a bit to the left...always....
That doesn,t help much when you try to make a neat work....LOL
.........
Thank again
