This took a LOT of TLC to get it to work. It sat around for a long time. When my sister was here last summer she wanted to try to learn to work on the 15's tensions. It was around and hadn't been worked on. Much to my surprise, we got it cleaned up and working. We tested the tension on another machine. Then when she left I thought why not try the bobbin area. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was. The internal parts that count were coated in dried up oil so it cleaned. I knew the motor was toast but I had no idea how to fix that. I chatted a bit with Mizkaki and she had some of the belt guards so I ordered some from her but I forgot about that machine. It took me 2 years but today it works. I realize there are still some rusty looking areas. It CAN be done. If at all possible try to save the machines with working potted motors. They are very nice machines and will serve you well. The ones I have done have been rescues. It was convert or scrap. I chose to fix. I'm pretty sure Grant would have this one gleaming by now.
