    Default Need to Replace the Takeup Thread Spring on my Singer 15-90

    I purchased a new thread takeup spring for my vintage singer 15-90. Now I need instructions on how to replace the broken one. I can't find any instructions to do this specific step on the internet.

    Can someone help me out?

    "I can't find any instructions to do this specific step on the internet."

    Yes you can, look here: http://www.tfsr.org/publications/tec...machine_manual

    Go to the Tension Mechanism Section. What you need is in there.

    Joe is right - find someone to sit with you and read the instructions in that wonderful manual together - you can do it if you can follow a pattern and make something.
