At @7:20 you put a drop of oil into the two allen set screws that hold the timing gear for the timing belt that goes to the main lower shaft . The set screws are not oil passages for a bearing. They just hold the timing gear to the upper shaft. I'm looking at your video because I just picked up a closely related Kenmore, the 148.15210 which uses an oscillating hook facing the front. It is in amazing condition having been used very little with no rust. I think I may have been the first to ever oil it since it was purchased.
@@eideticgoone7035 Oh okay, thank you for that info! At the time of the video I was almost brand new to sewing also or at least only a year. So it's still new to me as far as the oiling procedures.
Great content - also don't forget to oil the oiling points on the bottom of the machine. That will help prevent any random upper noise issues. The brand of oil that come with the oil spouts/sticks really help get into the deeper areas of the machine without dripping excess oil! I use Tri-flow (comes with a spout)!
If the hand wheel does not move when you try to turn it towards you, you have to oil it on the top. I once had a sewing machine and it took me 3 days for the hand wheel to finally move after I oiled it several times.
I followed your instructions and my machine is running like a charm now.
Awesome sauce!!! 👍
NICE... Look at all the metal components!!! Love it.

good info- an oil can with needle applicator does make it easier
what happen if the wheel cannot turn
