For those that asked to see the cabinet, the 'YOU TUBE' videos are exactly the same. Video names are 'SINGER' parlor cabinet NO.21 and "TREADLES and TEA' Episode1 with Miss Ellen Elevator
Thank you all for your ideas and encouragement,

Oh.
Oh.
Had to watch the videos twice before I got it. I thought they were skipping some critical step. Nope. You push down on the front right of the machine base and it goes right down. No button pushing, no lifting. I was really hurting myself trying to lift and push at the same time. It's really easy. Duh.
And the video showed me a door on the right side that I didn't know was there. Cool!
Thanks again, QB, for saving me!
