Hi
I am new on the board and have noticed there are lots of expert people fixing up their old machines here. I have bought an old Elna Supermatic which needs a bit of attention. I assume the infamous rubber pulley needs replacement, and I shall have to order one some where.
Has anyone adjustet the zigzag under the cam lid on top of the machine? There are two screws there that needs loosening. The trick is apparently to observe the round metal part to the right on the needle bar. When you have the zigzag cam (No 03) and sew full speed it is suppose to form an even curv. It's a kind of optical illusion of a curve in the air. If it flutters it needs attention. Mine does unfortunately
There are also a related ajustments on the hinged metal parts connected with the stitch length lever. Has anyone managed to sort out what this is all about?
