Look on that site http://www.tfsr.org/publications/tec...achine_manual/ under tension mechanism - it is under section #2. Look for a tension going forward and use that info and you will get it fixed. I'll look for more info - it may have to be a different service manual - possibly a 401 or a 500 - the tension is the same on them. That one was the one most helpful to me on doing the springs.

OMG!!!!! Monica I love you!!!! Did you read the whole ad? It says "Hitachi family electro-vessel sale Corporation Manufacture" and I think the end means made in 1938, 2,000 allotted maybe? Then it says "Hitachi sewing machine TAT-100 Showa era 38 year made HITACHI black." It is made by Hitachi!!! Now this makes sense. The type of treadle irons are from that time frame! Monica, I am so excited how did you do that? Jon and I both searched the web and I couldn't find anything about the Hitachi?
Thank you Thank you Thank you! Nancy |

I made a couple of the fabric bowls you use to set a bowl of food in to put in the microwave to nuke. My DH loves them and they sure make a hot bowl easy to handle. Great idea......

I just want to say that I love this shop! Billy thank you so much for bringing us this little world!
Jon, you made my day with the Hales Crescent! I so hate it when I can find nothing out about one of my machines - drives me nuts - could that be because I am an accountant and don't like loose ends???? Monica, you have just given me something so valuable to me! I love the information on the Hitachi! I knew my machine had to be made by Hitachi, but it was obviously not made for export! Makes me really wonder about why it got left in a storage container, and who owned/brought the machine over here? And, what happened to the family that loved this machine? Thank you all so much!
