The motor is tagged "Brother." There is no
JA number. The bold boxy and weight are very masculine, not soft. It needs lots of cleaning but does run. But, I was wondering if it is a total anomaly or have others encounter such a machine. It was sold as an auction purchase from a retired tailor. Sounds plausible. Miriam? Joe? I know I paid too much for it, but, HEY, I don't gamble or drink. (Last sentence for my wife's benefit

You have an industrial machine. They have their own oil pans to avoid unskilled workers from burning them up. I worked for Jantzen Knitting Mills years ago, and we had that type of machine, but not that specific model. We had to push the oil button before each shift, and before starting again after lunch.
