Converting Back to a Treadle
#1

Hi all, There is a Singer model 66 which was converted to electric for sale near me. The price is right, but I want to convert it back to a treadle. Other than removing the electric motor and adding a belt, is there any other step to the conversion? I found a website with instructions, but is doesn't mention anything about connecting the head to the treadle.
Thanks,
Shari

If you get a Singer treadle it should fit in if it has the hinge pins. They will go into the back bed of the machine and should have set screws to hold the hinge pins in place.
Good luck. Treadles are fun.
