Thanks, I was nervous to disassemble in order to clean but now I’m not. In the process of cleaning my 27 circa 1899, it’s been in the basement for 24vyrs😊
Thank you so very much! Turns out the tension assembly on my 27 was incorrectly assembled for years. With your help I was able to reinstall it and boy howdy, does it work better. It's a testament to the machine that it used to sew messed up.
Thanks for this video. I bought a project singer 28 with tension issues and it turned out that it wasn't put on correctly! Thanks to you, it's sorted and now I have a lovely working machine ☺
Hi, are the upper thread tension springs compatible on models 27 and 28? I have a 28 and looking for a spring, some sellers say they fit both, others only the 27. Thanks.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this answer and this video. I just found an 1895 model 27 with a mangled spring and was unsure which spring to replace it with.👍
I have a vintage Franklin scarab beetle which is exactly like the Singer 27. My check spring doesn’t look like this one. Does anyone have a Franklin Scarab Beetle - I would like to know where you get parts for it.

Thanks a lot. Very helpful. Colin UK. I just got my 27 K treadle machine a week ago, and videos like this are so important.
Glad it was helpful!

thats one of the reasons I made this video. I had bought so many machines where it was put back together wrong, glad it helped you!

Thx! I made this video because there are so many machines i purchase with these assembled wrong.
Thanks so much! I found a 27 with it installed incorrectly but couldn't for the life of me sort out the right way for it to go.
Very helpful, thank you 🤩

Jusr in time! My new to me Singer 27 is about to be my newest victim. MoreSir? Can we have some more on the 27?
