We have a very old Necchi Model BU Mira, that is integrated into a sewing table. It has a knee pressure speed control. There is no power cord, so I'm trying to figure out where to connect one. It appears there are 2 possibilities. One is a power block on the motor mount, but that appears only to make sense if there is a foot pedal speed control (not the knee kick). The other is where 2 blue wires from the transformer (primary?) connect to a terminal block underneath the machine. I looks to me like the knee pedal would short the power if it came from the power connector on the motor mount housing. Is the blue wire pair from the transformer where power should come in? Thanks, Sherrie

The power wire (from the wall) connects to a block just under the motor where the on/off switch is. On my machine there is a brown block with the words Necchi italy on it. I unscrew two screw and there is a track were the power cord lays and leads bite in to the cord as the screws are retightened..... The blue wires from the transformer are on the "sewing machine side" of the transformer and power from the wall should not be attached there.

I would like a wiring schematic for the speed control transformer and light on a old Necchi Mira sewing machine, please.

the light wires are not to be connected to the speed control but have a separate circuit to the on / off switch
if you have the light connected to the speed control then as the resistance to the motor is decreased it affects the power available to the light

Where to I connect the foot controller on this necchi bu mira sewing machine??? Cannot find where it connects anywhere.

Some of the pictures on the internet make it appear that some of the machines' foot pedals may have been hardwired. Since the machine appears to be a table top drop-in model, the connection may well be under the machine.

However, here is a free dlownload of an owner's manual. Page 14 seems to show the plug-in on the motor itself.
