setting up Singer 16-188
After over 35 years in storage I'm setting up my grandfather's Singer industrial machine. He was an upholsterer until the 80's. I had used some of his machines, but not this one. I had it serviced, replaced the power cord to the switch. The motor works. I'm wondering what kind of thread to use. The cones of thread that were packed with it are rotten, so can't be used. I may need help via images on how to set everything up. I have several of the feet, needles, the manual, bobbin winder, lamp, and a few parts I don't recognize. Any suggestions would be great. I'm hoping to use the machine on waxed canvas.
