Default Newcomer, have a German 1955 Phoenix 429 Machine

Hi All,

I have just joined, and I posted this in the "Introduce Yourself" area; someone suggested I post it here. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for all the wonderful information that is already on your group.

I just acquired a very solid old German sewing machine, a Phoenix 429. The handwriting on the paperwork says it was purchased in January 1955.

It has the manual but... it is in German.

I would really like to see an English manual, particularly the portions pertaining to tension, threading, and bobbins. Or just learn from any of you who have this machine, regarding its unusual-to-me threading and bobbin.

I hope someone here has the same machine :-)

Thank you so much in advance,

-Cecilia.
