Manual for a white westinghouse
 
Hello everyone. I am trying to find a manual for a white Westinghouse model 803-a. Anyone have any ideals where I can get one

I think you must have a White with a Westinghouse motor -

Free/Westinghouse was the original company, and then they ended up with New Home, and then I think Standard ended up with them, and after Standard went out of business (Singer actually ended up with the company that had Standard) at some point Janome got the "New Home" name. I don't have all my notes here at work to refer to.

Westinghouse motors got put on a lot of machines, both as original and as replacement motors, so don't pay too much attention to the motor when searching for the manual.

A picture would be helpful - White made a lot of machines with other names, so there may be something else you could look for that would give you the information.

There is a model 803-A made by Free Westinghouse - so you may be mistaken I calling it a White - or we are in that you mean the color is "white" and not that it was made by White.

this look like your machine?

Your machine was not made by Free - so there are other names out there that are the same basic machine.

There is also a Riccar and New Home with that model number that look sort of similar - you may want to check them out too.
