I checked out wal mart and Lowes-no luck. Nancy |

Miz Johnny, that picture is my machine ( the Leader) with a few differences. I assume that one is a handcrank as the wheel sits differently. My shuttle winder is lower and my little cirlcle that covers the interior workings is plain - yours is embossed. The decals of what looks like an ugly dog with wings are identical as is everything else. My instruction manual has a boxed P on it which makes sense. I lifted the machine back to check for any ID and what I found was a lot of lint and dust. Poor baby needs a spa treatment for sure. My
Thank you helping clear up the mystery. |
