. You could treadle one with a potted motor or a Japanese clone but you would have to find a spoked hand wheel that fits and you would lose the belt guard and bobbin winder. Do a bit of research first. First remove the motor and wiring, old hand wheel, and belt guard. Then put on a spoked hand wheel. Put on the clutch knob parts on and you should be good to go. Next put it on a treadle belt etc - it will work with out a bobbin winder if you use a sidewinder. I'm thinking the hand wheels are not all the same depth so you will need to find some thing that interchanges.

I don't believe that the 15-91 handwheel, clutch assembly and fiber spiral gear can just be removed from a 15-91 and replaced with a spoked handwheel. Johnm
