- Come see all the gorgeous restored sewing machines at: StagecoachRoadS...\Sears Kenmore sewing machine demonstration from Stagecoach Road Sewing Machine. Lots of awesome options on this beauty!
I just received my mom’s 1701 model that they purchased March 1970. She had kept ALL the paperwork and parts together, 5e box of cams, buttonholer, assorted gizmos and screwdriver, Stich-ripper, needle-threader, you name it! The warranty was a 30 year warranty. The only thing wrong was the handle to the case had broken about ten years ago. It’s at the shop now for cleaning and maintenance. Love my green machine!
I just picked up one of these machines in cabinet with all the accessories for $30! I’m so excited to work with it, and your video has been wonderful to show me the ins and outs of what this machine can do. Thank you!
Just got one in a cabinet as well for the same price!
My 1969 158 13031 Kenmore is still in good shape and at this rate it was a terrific deal when I purchased it in 1980 for about 40 sheckles. 42 years later, and it's still rocking. I don't believe I'll ever need to buy another machine.
Just saved one of these from the trash. Its a 1701 but very similar. Took me a few hours to free it up and set the hook timing. Box of cams and operators manual with it too! Cleaned up nice. Wish I had a service manual for the technical adjustments.
You can likely find them on line and some sewing shops save accessories/ manuals from older machines.
@@brittanymcdonaldbarr1106 thanks, i have since acquired the tech documents i was seeking.
Great demonstration and also like the music in the background.
I got my mom's old Kenmore 158, didn't know how to even thread it. But thanks to this video and another lady named Marianne D I was able to bring my machine to life. I fixed my curtains thanks to you ladies. May the Lord give you a long successful life.
My sewing repair guy said the 158 and all the older kenmores may not be aesthetically pleasing to some but they are a great simple workhorse that will last if properly cleaned/ oiled.
Thank you very much for sharing your wisdom and skills with this Kenmore machine! I just picked up a similar machine, my first sewing machine experience, and I found your demo to be very useful and educational! Cheers!
I am about to pick up a Sears Kenmore. It will be my first sewing machine and I intend to we xperiment and learn on the go/teach my self . I hope it won't be hard to figure out how to do basic sewing?
Lol I have the same one from my grandma got it this year for the holiday... I just want you to know i watch you video like 50 times it helps a great deal because I don't have the manual thanks you did good and most likely I'll watch it 50 more times it help thanks
After a year and 5 machines in my collection, this (my is a 1701) is my go to.
My friend's mom gave me one of these today. Very helpful video! :)
Thank you! This made it so much easier!
hi can you please demonstrate how to thread a sears kenmore 158.16010, a have one but a dont know nothing about it!!!!!!
Hello thank you for the demonstration, I have this exact machine. I was truly blessed to pay only 45 dollars for it, especially after i traded in a mini singer i had paid 64 dollars for, and it is in perfect condition. So, I am having a hard time finding the manaul for the 158.16021 there is a 16020 but no 21 anywhere. I did write an email to sears I hope they come through because I am fairly new at sewing. But this was very informative I did not know how to use the feed and stretch stiches yay, no wonder it ate my stretch material ha thanks again.
Hi Nadine did Sears ever respond about the manual? I just got this machine and can't find a manual either !
I learned to saw in Puerto Rico in home economic class. I loved it. Haven sewn in many years. I came to have the same exact machine. My friend saw the machine box or table. He would not stopped. Some hours later the machine was still by the sidewalk. She made him stop. I ended up with the machine. I worked wonderfully. The issue is that the bobbing case sits fall out and can't figured out how to replace it. Please help. Thanks.
Hi. Your demo and info are very helpful. Thank you.
However, I did struggle to hear your instructions because the background music, and the running of the machine interferred : (
hello, I just bought a sears Kenmore at thrift store, not sure was working but I tested it in store so it appeared the sewing functions worked so I bought it. so far so good but I'm not familiar w the funny dials, learning, some buttons or dials not too sure what they are for...👍
Oh thank God you have mine! Woot!
Could you show a demonstration on how to thread a Kenmore model 158.19142?
Thank you. Very nice demostration.....
Hi! I have a Kenmore 158.130. Do you know if this machine has more sewing patterns other than strain and zig zag??
I have a used machine and lost the manual during a move. Anyone know how I can gt a manual?
My mother has one, she has dementia. She has this machine. She has been trying to sew on it, but thread is bird nesting up in bobbin compartment. We do not have the book. What needs to be adjusted to fix this? Help is much needed .
Thank you so very much 🥰💗🥰
HI!
Thanks for the wonderful demonstration.
I purchased the same machine last year. I love it, but I can't wind a bobbin without the needle still engaged. You didn't explain when you did something on the right side of the machine and your mentioned disengaging the "clutch." What is it you did? Thanks!
Wendy Neptun Hold the hand wheel (larger wheel on right-hand side of your machine) with your left hand. Hold it firmly so it can't move, now take your right hand as you hold the handwheel with your left hand and take your RIGHT hand and turn the smaller wheel (located on the handwheel) and turn that AWAY FROM YOU. Let go of both wheels. You have just engaged the needle so it goes up and down for sewing. Now to wind a bobbin, you want to do the opposite with that smaller wheel (the stop motion clutch). So holding the handwheel with left hand, turn the smaller wheel with your right hand TOWARD you to stop the needle from moving. And remember when you decide to sew again, you must turn that smaller wheel AWAY from you as you firmly hold the big wheel in your LEFT hand to disengage the bobbin winder! Hope this helps since you got no response to your question. Now pass this info on to another sewer and have a fine day! 😊
@@TheJudeJane , THANK YOU, very much, Jude Jane!! I finally got it to work and can make bobbins now. 😊😊😊😊👍👍👍👍 Wendy
I know this sounds crazy but I just got sewing machine like this (I have never had a sewing machine) what cords plugs into it? I believe I may not have all of them
I need help. The whole casing that holds the babbing has falling off. I want to saw and can't figure out how to place the parts so that they stay in place.
Thank you so much!
Great demonstration. I own a 1802.4, what are the differenced between 1802.3 and 1802.4?
Melani Y the difference between the model numbers to the right of the decimal, is usually indicating which all cams & attachments are included with the machines. On Mother's Day, & Christmas, the machine model could be identical, but some models included only 8 to 10 stitch cams, & the basic feet, while the same machine model with a higher price, & a different number after the 4 basic model #'s could include 30 stitch cams, a monogrammer, & several extra feet & attachments.
Great. Can you demonstrate the Kenmore 158.905 you have listed for sale?
I have a machine like this but the feed switch is stuck. Any tips on repair/maintenance?
Hi, I have a Kenmore 158-1760 it looks similar to the one you have in this video. And yep, I have had it since 1976 - it works beautifully, but have never used the button hole attachment...until now and having a problem figuring it out. Any tips?
Hi..can you tell me where I can get the cams for Kenmore Model 158.1601...Few I've seen at Ebay but not sure which one to get..Truly appreciate your video on Kenmore sewing machine..thank you..
Does this machine has more presser foots or comes just with the one attached.?
After watching this, can anyone believe she threaded that needle that fast without even hardly looking at it????...the tiny hole in the needle is the size of a fraction of the size of nothing...so how can anyone put a string through something so fast that you can barely see? it's impossible.
3:36 hola. Acabo de agarrar una máquina de éstas,y trae la abuja clavada abajo , porque puede ser?
De antemano muchas gracias....
Hi, I have a vintage kenmore without booklets. It is two tone and brown and cream. It has logo that looks like a Cadillac. Do you by any chance know what model or year it is. It has 5 knobs on front.
Possibly 158.18024. Mine has same. How do we get ahold of another on here?
I have my mothers Kenmore model 92 which is very similar. Can’t remember what the settings are for zigzag stitch. Can you help
Hello how are you I bought the same model but nothing more machine sews back and me not Help me be arranged, Greetings from Venezuela
Need to know why bobbin. Wont rewind
Hi...do you have a manual instructions?
hi a friend gave me her mothers old Kenmore sewing machine its a model 15814100 model it sews in a line wonderful but l can't get the zigzag to work please help
What stitch would you recommend for a thin silicone impregnated nylon? I am interested in making a backpacking tent that is light weight. Thanks
How do you fix a bobbin that won't stitch from the bottom
Could you tell me if this machine is made of plastic or metal?
My mom has this machine, and I have it now. It’s metal, but the casing is a hard plastic. I moved 1900 miles and with the bumping around the plastic bits that keep it latched and able to open broke. Wondering if there’s a way to repair the box or find a new box
This looks alot like my Kenmore 158.14001 machine. Do you know where I can download a manual for my machine? What does 158 and the other numbers mean? I would be happy with any information you can share. Thank you for this demo. Great video!
Check manuallib.com
Can you please show how to thread a 158 1784282
What size/ kind of needles do these machines use?
I just picked up a Kenmore 158.900, serial number 014545. Can anyone help me find some info on it? The "Sears Archives" don't have it listed. It is obviously old. All metal, heavy as hell, and still partially works. I would like to get it to full working condition, but who knows, maybe it's worth something to a collector. I'd be willing to sell it, but shipping costs would probably be ridiculous, lol.
Mike Anderson ju
Please show us how to do button holes and zippers. I have exact the same model. Thank you
Vernon Holbert I hope you Googled "manual for vintage Kenmore". Easy!
@@TheJudeJane thank you
I'm back again Lol quick story I lost my screw that holds the needle I almost lost my mind because its an older machine the screw fell thought the wall I called sears they said they did not have it in stock and wouldn't so I'm a newbie to the sewing thing but anyways I manged to get it fix now I need a refresher so I'm back
I have a 158.18023 sewing machine and do not have the foor pedal and do not see where it goes. where on the machine is the foot pedal???
Janet Trinidad You need to get the foot pedal as you cannot operate the machine without it. Then plug the three-prong cord into right-hand side of machine located below the large handwheel. The other attached cord goes into the electrical outlet located on your wall. Never use a power strip!
I was given a Kenmore model 158.900 and the machine looks to be in great shape. However the belt is in need of replacement and when I turn the hand wheel it seems to be really stiff. Do you have a video on replacing the belt and any advice on the tight feeling?
Scott Brookerd Been over a year, but hope you Googled your model number and your question. These folks are selling machines and you can see only other people answer questions here. Sorry.
Scott Brookerd Try shop.sew-classic.com for help.
What is the model number for the machine you are sewing on during this video, please? I have a 158.1602 and it looks similar.
+Deborah Chapdelaine it's a 158.16010 sears kenmore, a want to know how to thread my machine
I found one at the thrift store and can’t find the plug
good luck because I can't find much about this specific machine so far, and I now own one.
Im wanting to learn how the different buttons, knobs and compartments work. If you find a good resource, I'd be interested to know.
I have this model... I've been having issues with belt in the back.. The motor turns but it looks like belt is lose and so it does not grip to turn the rest of the gears on the mechine. I tried find a new belt but don't know Its the right size. It was the closes size that the store had. I'm still having the same issue.. It could the belt or maybe the tension on the belt guide... I am some what mechanically incline but Since I don't work with these I don't know what to look for... Can you please give some advice. Thank you for your help.
Cristina Martinez You probably have things sorted by now, but just in case you or someone else is still having a problem, shop.sew-classic.com is a great resource for vintage sewing machine parts.
@@WaterNai Im late getting on here but Thank You!
Tammy C You’re welcome! I often find things long after the fact, myself. I’m glad it turned out to be useful for you.
the musuic mde it hard ti hear you and u need a better mic...go to Benadette Banners vlog, this past weekend they had som live vlogs, mic quality was something they talked about
Camera is too far away.
How do I find the plug?
Saundra Lopez Excuse my ignorance, but do you mean the foot pedal? That plugs into the outlet port on the right hand side of machine and has a cord attached to it that fits into the electric outlet on your wall. Never use a power strip!
!hola! tengo una másquina igual y quiero bordar pero no se cómo se gradúa para hacerlo. me podrísas ayudar. muchas gracias.
