Yes. However, you wrote "gears" as plural. There is only one gear in that machine; the hook gear. The hook gear is inexpensive and easy to replace and retiming the hook is easy as well. There is another potential problem; the timing belt cogs. They are plastic and, over time, they split, causing the timing belt to jump off time constantly. The replacement kit (2 cogs, belt and idler pulley) is available but is extremely labor intensive and requires a high level of aptitude for mechanical repair.
If you need a hook gear, they are under $10 and can be shipped right to your door. 805-540-9294

Testimonial: "this was very helpfu and has saved me a great deal of expense at this timel. I am looking for for the order blank now."

    I can fill your order. If you want the hook gear, it is $9.50 plus $3 to mail it to anywhere in the US. If you want the Timing Belt Kit, it is $33.00 plus $4 to mail. 805-540-9294

Hook Drive Gear, Riccar #53741 how to take part off of sewing machine

Hi there,

Today I got such a machine (Riccar) for free from a lady I know. the only problem was that the needle walked against the bobbin (timing problem).

I screwed the sewingmachine open and after some screwing I saw that the part, Hook Drive Gear, Riccar #53741, was broken. Wat I did is I enscrewed two screws wich hold the part on the axe and with a bigger flat screwdriver I could just push the part from the axe, from the other gear. It looks more difficault then it is.

Now I have to get a new part, put it back and time the the machine so that the needle will go normal, at the right time, in the bobbin. Does anybody know the trick to do that?

regards,
Daan

My Riccar Super Strech Electronic Foot 808 E will not pick up bobbin thred?

Generally, this is because your needle is bent, even if you can see that it is. It only has to be the slightest bit bent. Try changing the needle and see if this fixes the problem. 9 times out of 10, it does.

Best of luck!

Looking for a Riccar Sewing Machine Model 600 FA #10148 instruction manual. Is it possible to get one or download one?

Here is a site for Riccar Owner's Manuals:

http://www.riccar.com/help/manuals/

The quality of this manual at the following link is not great and it is confusing as although listed for the 600FA it has a different model number on the cover. Hopefully it is of some use. If not try finding a manual from the menu above for a more closely related model.

Note that this same pdf is being sold on some sites for $14.99 USD.

Looking for hook gear for riccar eatons viking ezb 108798 and repair manual. my bobbin hook wiil not move

The gear is #53741 and is available at most sewing dealers. The part is also available wholesale at sewing machine services in Canada. Also fits riccar, eatons and babylock machines, so a babylock dealer could help. You will have to beg a repair book or photocopy same to ger mounting and setting instructions. We charge about 60 to install and time the part ONLY.

I need to lower the feed dog on my 808. The

There may not be an option. Try this - set the stitch length to zero. This should stop the movement of the feed dogs.

Tape an index card over the feed dogs with a hole punched out for the needle to enter and exit.

808 E that I need a diagram for.I think it the hook gear that broke but before i order one I want to make sure thats what it's called

A common problem with the Riccar 808e is a broken hook gear.

The part number is 53741 and usually runs about $15.

Putting it in is easy but then you must re-time the hook. Let me know if you need help with it. I'm not sure where you can get a diagram or a manual...
