I have an earlier 20U. You can also adjust the knee lever to control the stitch width regulator rather than the presser foot lift. Before computerized embroidery machines, machine embroidery was done essentially free hand. I've lost track of the videos but remember a few where it was amazing to watch a guy do perfect embroidery. My reverse has stopped working. It stops the machine from sewing forward but never quite gets to reverse.
I know this is an old video. I recently was having problems with skipped zig-zag stitches and was not able to tighten down my handwheel. I would like for you to make a video on this for a Singer 20U33 I think I have it fixed now but it was a lot of searching and not even on a Singer 20U video I found my "clutch disk" had slipped out of place. PLEASE make a video for Singer 20U and the clutch disk replacement. If it is out it causes so many problems
There are lots of manuals online, many are free. Search for "Singer 20U33 Manual". I found this one for you. www.manualslib.com/manual/522847/Singer-20u31.html#product-20U33
I also have this machine, I got it sew deer hides. It worked beautifully. Now it will only sew a zigzag on fabric and not work at all on the hides. Can you help me figure this out? I have projects I need this machine for
It is possible but spongy material is more of a challenge. Your feed dog should be in good shape and not too smooth from use. Perhaps the feed dog may need adjustment so that is is fully engaging the fabric and then the foot pressure would need to be considered as well. Good luck.
Hey Alexander, I bought a singer 20u33 for free motion embroidery work, but I don´t know how to fit the tension correctly. Big satin stitches are perfect, but I need straigthstitch to create more delicate embroiderys. I´m from germany and here is nobody around that knows what free motion embroidery is... I would be glad to get a response from you whether you can help me or not. Thank´s in advance
To sew a straight stitch you set the bight to it's most narrow setting. The tension setting should remain the same. It is great to hear from Germany, your English is very good. Thank you very much, I hope this helps in some way. Viel Erfolg
alexander thanx for posting, just started watching you last night. newbie here, Could this machine sew nylon sling material thats approx 5/16" thick??jus wondering???? thanks ahead of time. james in idaho
Typically I would recommend a walking foot sewing machine for thick materials and they don't always require zig zag. I always recommend trying to sew what you want to sew on a machine before purchasing if you can.
Do you know how to adjust the foot pedal on the 20U so it's not so tight? And also, if a thread is breaking every few minutes and both tensions are adjusted, what would be the culprit?
Change your needle. Make sure you have good thread. Re-thread your machine. Check and adjust your take up spring. Hold your thread tails when you start.
Hello my mom has the exact machine but she tells me that the machine is out of time or possibly out of sync. sorry if you dont know what that is or if i am saying it correctly i am translating from spanish to english. The needle is hitting underneath the plate where the bobbin is and breaking the needles. Do you know how to fix this of adjust it or maybe where I can find some documentation on this matter? Thanks for your help
I have a Singer 20U33 and have used it for many years but not much in the past year. I went to try to sew on it today and the black otter wheel spins and will not make the lever go up or down. Any recommendations for me to try? I have oiled it but it still does not work. It is like the belt does not turn anything.
I tried tightening the center knob but even doing that the big wheel will not engage and make things move. I understand about loosening to wind the bobbin. Iam wondering could it be the belt has stretched and it is not enough pull on the wheel to turn?
Hey I was not going to let this problem get the best of me so I kept tying to find my problem and I found it. The Clamp Stop Motion Washer is worn. I flipped it over and the machine is working correctly now. But I went searching for a new one and Singer says they have stopped making this part. I searched the internet but did not find anyone who has a new one for sale. I found some used CSMw but as far as i can tell none say they are for my model exactly, So I am searching and will continue. I did contact Singer by email too see if they have any suggestions. Thanks for your help.
Hola tengo una maquina parecida pero como que la ahuja topa mucho con la bobina no le impide coser pero si despunta mucho las ahujas que puedo hacer? Gracias
Good day . I used a translator, I apologize in advance if something goes wrong. My question is: can the sewing machine zinger 20U33 (green) embroider the same way as 20u33 Professional (blue)? thank you in advance.
Hi! how set the timing of the left and right position of the needle? Mine is only working on the middle and right position. when i switch to left position the hook won't catch the thread. when put to zigzag it works on narrow stitch but not on the wide stitch. I hope you can help me on how and where to adjust. thanks
Your machine is not timed properly. timing is not too tough and you may be able to manage. I can't really explain how to do it in comments. Time your machine so that is will not skip any stitches at the widest setting and all other settings will be good.
my only problem is the position of the left and right of the needle they are not even from the middle position the left side is more wider from the middle position. maybe you can have a video on how set the needle position to make it even left and right from the middle position.
Hola esa maquina puede coser con dible aguaja sines asi puede hacer. Un video gracias 😊

Hi Mate, Do you know where I can find some parts for this sewing machine. I need that long metal piece that has a thread hole and is fixed on top of the Singer word. I also need need that long black selector which appears on the bottom of the small word S
Here are a couple of links to a parts manual and an instruction manual. Get the numbers of the parts you need and contact your local industrial sewing machine shop. It does not need to be that local since they can ship anywhere pretty cheap strongbolt.work/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Singer-20U33-Parts.pdf strongbolt.work/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Singer-20U-Owners-Manual.pdf

Thanks for the manual, but to find the part from that long list is not easy, I wish if I knew the name of these two parts.
i HAVE THIS MACHINE, THE KNOB TO THE RIGHT WILL HARDLY TURN, SO I CAN;T TURN IT TO BRING UP MY THREAD, HOW DO I LOOSEN THIS. BELT IS NOT THAT TIGHT, ITS STILL HARD WITHOUT THE BELT. SECOND STITCHES SKIP WITH ZIG ZAG. TRIED CHANGING NEEDLE. ANY SUGGETIONS.
+Joyce Weaver If your machine is difficult to turn by hand without the belt then the restriction is in the machine. The most common cause is a bunch of thread wrapped around and under the bobbin and hook. Give the machine a good cleaning, remove all lint and thread and oil any moving parts while you are at it.
Hi I have a question my mom has this exact same machine with the table In very good condition I tried looking online to see what they are going for but couldn't find It anywhere If anyone knows what this machine Is worth can someone please let me know thank you

I have this machine but trying to sew twill and it will only sew two layers of twill. Also the thread cuts whenever it goes over a sean.
That's one of my favorite machines.
You are in luck, There are millions of them. 😄

Easy, just tighten the center knob on the hand wheel. It is there to disengage the rest of the machine while bobbin loading.
I tried tightening the center knob but even doing that the big wheel will not engage and make things move. I understand about loosening to wind the bobbin. Iam wondering could it be the belt has stretched and it is not enough pull on the wheel to turn?
I thought that I understood you to say that the handwheel was turning. If that is the case then the belt is probably ok. Righty Tighty, Lefty Loosey
