Lady Kenmore Manual?
 
Does anyone have a source for a free manual for the Lady Kenmore sewing machine, model 516.891 or just 89? I've checked Sears parts direct and a site with free Kenmore manuals and the yahoo groups, all to no avail. I know there are some for sale, but I have a hard time paying almost as much for a pdf file as I did for the machine.

I picked one up this morning knowing it was frozen and with a possibly cracked camstack. I thought it would be worth the price for the high shank feet and the case. After working on it for a while, I have it mostly freed up but the worker at the thrift store who absolutely flooded it with oil probably helped. The camstack also appears intact. My main question is about the way the stitch cam knob is supposed to work...it's still sticking a little and knowing what it's supposed to do might help.

Thanks in advance!
