Its okay, she won't bite. You have a model 66-1 with Red Eye decals, she's a sister to my machine. Do the feet attach at
the back or on the side?
Yours is older than mine by a few months made in 1910,
my serial number is G5960807.
You could remove the motor and light and make her a treadle again.
Thanks so much. The fellow I bought it from said it was a 1929 model, but 1910 is good too. Just wondering where I can find a manual so I know how to thread it properly, how to wind the bobbin, what type of bobbins it uses, and how to oil it. I want to use it as an electric machine -- already have a treadle which I'm ashamed to say is in my garage! The feet attach on the side.
Krystyna, here is a site with free downloads of instruction manuals for Singer's Model 15, 66, 99, 27, 127, 28, 128, and 221!
These manuals are copies of the original so not really good quality - just down load, but remember the 99 is like 99 pages long - if I remember correctly!
