Willcox & Gibbs Automatic tension question
So, I'm usually pretty good about being able to find documentation on things, but this one has be stumped...
I am looking for a "exploded view" of the automatic tensioning mechanism.
The Original manual just states "The Automatic Tension is not at all liable to get out of order, but will remain perfectly adjusted and self-adjusting, if not meddled with."
ok, well it was "meddled with" before I got it... Now what....??
I have not been able to find ANY images or photos where someone has shown this... weird...

I have 4 of these machines, 2 electric, one treadle and one hand crank. I haven't (yet) had any problems with the tension. I will search through my paperwork, but have you checked the group at treadleon, there is almost always someone there that can help you.
