Thank you for the help I have been given. We found out my girl's serial number is G0062681 and turns out to be a 66 born May 28 1923

To find a manual, I went to

http://www.singerco.com/accessories/...manuals/search

and put in 66. I see a manual for a 66 treadle, not electric.

Can someone help me again? Thanks!

The manual will be the same for the electric but will have the oiling points of the motor and belt adjustment. But other than that (which is common sense) it will be the exact same manual that you need.

That's a lovely Frister & Rossman. :mrgreen: :-D

Billy-
1347 pages? You are a busy man!
Any discussion about a 99K in there somewhere?
I hate to ask questions that have been asnwered but all those pages to go through....ugh.
I just bought a cutie (1954 99K) and don't like how the motor sounds. It needs a belt and a good cleaning too. Restoring it might be above my skill level. Maybe I need to find a shop. Are they hard to work on?

it is cheaper to remove the motor and take it to a motor shop than to take it to a sewing repair shop. other than that just clean it like you would any other machine - look on the tutorial Billy put up - it's a good tutorial.

Gorgeous! Thanks for posting.

Absolutely gorgeous machine.

2 Doods; I have a 99 K from 1923, I think, and it is much noisier than any of my Singer 15s or any of my other vintage Singers. I do not know if this is specific to 99s or just something with my machine and perhaps yours, too. Maybe one of the gurus can help. You can work on them on your own. Patience is helpful as is only working on small manageable bites at a time. If taking it apart, big or small pieces, have seen suggestions for putting the machine in a box lid with a large disposable diaper or towel underneath so the small pieces which might drop are caught before hitting the floor, hopefully. I hope this helps some.

What do you mean by a motor shop?

2 Doods--I love the 2 dogs in your avatar :-D !!!!

I work on them all of the time and in fact I just finished up a 99K for one of our member not long ago. They are simple to play with and are just baby versions of the 66 but with a couple of differences. If you do not feel like messing with it I can do it for you but I have tutorials on how to clean one in here somewhere. Just look under the VSMS virtual forum and you will see them. If you want to ask anything just PM me and I can walk you through it.
