De draadgeleider van de spanningsregelaar zit verkeerd om. Als u hem omdraait, zult u zien dat het ontwerp plotseling weer logisch is.

Neat little machine. Will you bother trying to repair it?

I wanted to get it working agian, but the bloody needlebar did not want to move. So I moved on, sold the 24-7 and I now have a 24-32 for my next video ;-)

Back in the 1980s I worked for an outfit that restored and repaired these machines for the sweatshop factories who used these machines to sew brims on hats etc and they had them all hooked up with belts to electric motors to run them as fast as possible, needless to say breakage and wear were big issues, so i used to pick up and deliver these little machines.

It looks like the stich length adjustment on your machine is broken. I think there should be a knob sticking out to the right. The adjustment for stich length can only be moved when the nut behind it is released. Some machines have a rectangular nut, but your round one looks easier to use. Nice video.

Hi, thank you for your message. And your knowledge! This Singer 24-7... well... it has seen better days. I was unable to get it to work. It was most likely painted over, including the needle bar and presser bar. It had more problems, like a missing stud underneath the tension unit. I stopped counting what was wrong with it. 🙂 After filming this video I sold it and bought another 24: a 24-32. Lovely machines. Hard to get in Europe. Thanks for your input!

There is no knob on this model. I have the same, with exactly the same little lever.
