Singer 301 Tension Shaft
1 Attachment(s)
I am hoping that someone will be able to help with a Singer 301 tension shaft issue. I should first start off with the machine is stitching fine! The main tension shaft opening is facing up and down versus right to left. All the tension parts that fit into the slot on the shaft have to be installed differently (the + and - signs are on the side versus at the top). Is there any easy fix to move the shaft to the correct position? I am attaching a pic of how the shaft should look (right to left for the opening). My opening is straight up and down! Any help is always appreciated!!

I just had to do that on 2 machines and my 319 needs it. There is a set screw somewhere - I don't have a 301 but it is likely to the right in the body of the head. You can turn loose and then move the tension. I found helpful info here - nice to have expert help to refer to.... http://www.tfsr.org/publications/tec...achine_manual/ then look at tension mechanism. There are only a few ways those can go... You may have info in your user's manual... http://www.ismacs.net/singer_sewing_...ine-manual.pdf but it is only the owners manual...
Iris and I ran into fun when we did the 319 on Friday - the dumb 319 manual was not matching up with the order we took the thing apart or the logical way it should go. It had the flat disk between the two curved disks. It came off last so we put it back on first. We had a dickens of a time with the spring. You have to hold it just so and hold your mouth just so and have an extra hand or two and try it 5 times and it will go back together. Some times they go back together on the first try - mostly when you aren't trying to teach somebody... Oh well, Iris needed the practice. I bet she can do it in her sleep. |
