Description
This is a replica of the manuals which were originally provided to Singer Sewing Machine Technicians, showing you both the inner workings of your machine and instructions on how to service it.
So what’s the difference between this and the Service Manual? Other than the look and feel (this is in book form, like a larger version of the original manuals, while the Service Manual was originally loose leaf pages used in a file with instructions for servicing all singer machines and which has now been bound) the answer is this: the technical information is similar, however the Adjusters Manual contains more electrical information while the Service Manual has both more and larger diagrams of various parts of the machine. Both are useful to have in your arsenal of featherweight repair tools, but can be used individually.
