need help with singer model 66 treadle
#1
the belt is slipping but looks to be in good shape, can I put vasaline on it to soften up the leather and get better grip out of it. Or maybe I just need to shorten the belt.
does anyone have the name of the guy on here that gives advise and repairs old machines

Do you have the manual for it? You can go to SingerCo.com and d/l it for free ( in most cases). Some machines have a motor which can be lowered and raised.
I was at the Mennonite sewing machine repair shop yesterday and they said "do not use 3 in 1 oil".
I did buy new bobbin winder tires for .17 each.
I would be cautious about putting any substance on my machine.
