Question about Singer 7442 Mechanical Sewing Machine

1 Answer

Squeeky machine I have a Singer 9410 Heavy Duty School machine. I have had it for several years, and it sews great most of the time. I have been doing a lot of sewing lately, and it has begun to squeek. It sounds like it needs to be oiled. Could you tell me how & where to oil this machine?

I looked at the basic manual for your machine here: http://www.singerco.com/accessories/manuals.html (type the model number in the manual search box) and it doesn't show exactly where to oil. If you can get a small can of light oil with a fine spout (like 3 in 1 or similar) then just put a tiny drop of oil on each pivot and spindle. You should be able to see where there was once oil before. Use only a tiny amount or it will make a mess.

My heavy duty Singer sewing machine is stuck in reverse. How do I fix it?
If this machine has a mechanical lever or button it may be internal parts have broken and need to be replaced. this is a common issue with lots of machines. The machine breaks when in reverse and will only sew in reverse. Please have a professional look at the machine and make a repair if necessary.

I have a Singer 4411 and the feed dogs lower/raise switch appears to be disengaged. Has anyone seen this on the heavy duty models? Best, Jordan
Well that can be deceiving, and here's why. Once you lower the feed dogs, when you want to raise them up again, they won't just go up. You have to turn the hand wheel TOWARDS you (ALWAYS towards you) several times, and you will then eventually hear a click.

That's true of most machines from any manufacturer. In fact, I have a friend that got a steal on a Brother because they thought it was broken, and that was the only problem!

Is pfaff hobbymatic a heavy duty machine?
The term "heavy duty" sewing machine is thrown about loosely lately. There are new machines (including Pfaff, Singer, etc) for sale advertised as "heavy duty," but I would be hesitant to stitch denim jean hems on them. The Pfaff 807, which appears to be an older mechanical, is probably more "heavy duty" than some newer machines on the market. However, "heavy duty" does not mean that you can sew big canvas sailcloth or heavy upholstery projects. A domestic machine (which the Pfaff 807 is) is really meant for general domestic sewing. If you want to sew "heavy duty" fabric, then look to an industrial machine. Remember that frequent sewing of heavy fabric takes a toll on a domestic machine, ie the motor, needlebar, other working parts, thus hastening the demise of your machine and the more frequent need for service & repair.

Hi. I have a practically new 4411 Heavy Duty Singer sewing Machine. After a few uses the neddle position stays on the left even thou I put the and the Three Needle Position Dial on the center.
If it is pretty new, it could still be under warranty. Take it to a Singer service center.

Singer Heavy Duty 110 making whining/screeching noise.
If you cleaned and oiled according to the owner's manual, then that probably isn't the issue. Suggest consulting the owner's manual, troubleshooting section. Machine could also be out of time.

Some reviews on this machine are not great:

If you've had this machine for seven years and haven't had problems until now, it may be a good time to think about replacing it.
