I have the Singer Sewhandy Electric sewing machine for the little seamstress Model 50D. What I need is the small screw that holds the needle in place and I also need replacement needles. In the manual with the machine it calls for a needle as follows: Cat.1113 Class 24x3 size 11 Where can I get these replacement pieces for this machine? Thanks for your help.

How to take apart a singer sewhandy 50d to rewire it?

These machines are not user serviceable, no parts will be available to the general public.
Please have a trained service technician look at your machine. electrical issues and mechanisms do require service from time to time, especially with heavy use. If you use your machine frequently, have it cleaned and adjusted based on your use levels.
Cheers,

The two needles on my serger are broken, how do I replace them?

You might want to check the owners manual to make sure this is right for your machine (or let us know which machine you have), but on my Singer, there is a small screw between the two needles that must be loosened - be sure to hold the needle fragments as you do this to prevent them falling. Notice the orientation of the needle fragments as you remove them, then orient two new needles the same way the fragments were, insert them all the way into the machine and tighten the screw while holding them in place.

I bought my daughter a White sew E-Z so she can have fun on her first sewing machine. However there is no manual and no instructions on how to thread the bobin. the bobin just sits on its flat side to go...

Check the model number of the machine. White sewing machine manuals are available from Singer at http://www.singerco.com/accessories/instruction-manuals . Enter the model number and click Search.

The White Sew E-Z model W338 manual is available here: http://www.singerco.com/uploads/download/705_white-338-x.pdf .

Unlike some machines this one doesn't really need the bobbin threaded. Place the bobbin in the bobbin holder and leave about 5" of thread extended out from the bobbin holder. With the bobbin compartment still open, lower the presser foot and turn the handwheel to move the threaded needle through the stitch cycle. (I find holding the threads helps; normally, you'll feel them pulling under your fingers.) When the needle has returned to the top of the path, lift the presser foot. Then pull both threads around to the front (the bobbin thread should wrap around the top thread). Then move the threads to the back of the presser foot.

If the needle isn't catching the bobbin thread, first try a new needle (bent or dull needles don't always function properly). Next check the bobbin holder for nicks or other damage. There is a small hook on the bobbin holder that should be where the top and bottom threads intertwine. Under rare circumstances, you will find that the bobbin tension of the bobbin holder is misadjusted. This can interfere with the bobbin thread twisting properly. There is a little set screw that allows you can tighten or loosen the bobbin tension as needed. Adjusting the screw is to be avoided when possible and done in small increments (1/8 turn) if needed. It's easy to strip the threads for the set screw and end up needing to replace the bobbin holder.

I hope this helps.

METAL PLATE COVERING BOBBIN WON'T STAY DOWN

Take it apart again and compare the original screw with the one you substituted. If they are not the same size, you will need to get one that matches the original.

Re-place the needle plate and when firmly in place, put the screws back in.

I need to load the bobbin for my singer 247, I have no manual

I am a veteran seamstress and I may be able to help you. it sounds as though you just have the wrong needle in the machine or the needle is in backwards.. Machine needles are different lengths according to what machine it is. The needle could also be dull on the point. Try this and see if it helps. Also your local sew shop can help you no charge if you just go in and talk with them. The techs enjoy helping for the most part I have discovered.

Putting on the tension wire by the needle.

It is a thread guide and if you don't reconnect it your machine will still work.Don't worry about it too much.
To reinstall it you need to place one end around the screw in such a position so that the guide will travel behind the needle bar, to the left side of the needle bar and then to the front of the needle guide. When you have it in this position you should have no real problem screwing it back on.
