Default Singer 404 -- Help needed
Can anyone here help me get started with a Singer 404? I bought it from Goodwill and it definitely needs a good cleaning. The gears need lube, judging by the slight grinding feel that I get when I move the hand wheel. Also, when I move the hand wheel, it seems to bounce backwards slightly before it moves forward. Is that normal? Anything I should check on it before plugging it in? I am a lot more familiar with Featherweights, so any suggestions would be great. Thanks!
