Need help finding manual for singer sewing machine
 

My friend and I were quilting to day at the local senior center and her machine sounds "clunky" very noisy.
Everyone agreed she should oil it which she said she has never done. She is just starting to quilt and it is an old machine she said. Some folks were giving her "advice" where to put oil. I had her use my machine and I said I would see if I could find a manual. Well it is not so easy!!
All the machine says on it is Singer Electronic Control then on the side I did find 3314C but noting about a model so I don't know if that is it or not, I am not sure where to start. This isn't rally "quilting" related so I hope no one gets made at me for putting this here. Can anyone help me help here???

Thank you so much but it isn't free. They want $10.00. I would like to get it for her but can't at this time. I was hoping for free.

Oops sorry!!!! :o

I don't know anything about this model Singer machine.

I can tell you that on the older models of Singers I own, I usually use Sewing Machine Oil
on metal that rotates against metal.

There's a special grease for some Singer gears.

The two cannot be used interchangeably.

Don't we have an old Singer thread here....maybe you should ask there.

Good luck

Has the needle been changed lately? My machine will start to sound clunky when it needs a new needle and/or it needs oiling. If she's never oiled her machine that should help a lot. Good luck finding a manual.

THANKS so much!!! I knew that about changing the needle and forgot to mention it!!! You are all so wonderful!!
Now I am off to sew since there is still to much snow to be outside!! Hopeing for spring soon!!!

GrandmK, if there's a sewing machine repair shop in your area, I feel certain that they wouldn't charge to show your friend where to oil her machine. You could call ahead and ask.

No there isn't one in the area About 165 miles and I asked them and they said "$65.00 for us to look at the machine" But I did get the manual and passed it on to her!! This board is the best!!
