It's not likely you are going to find a manual for a vintage Singer. However, the older Singers didn't change a lot from one model to the next, so you should be able to find information on multiple web sites and videos that would be helpful.

Oil points singer model 7422

Computerized sewing machines, like the 7422, don't usually need oiling. They used sealed bearings. The manual for the 7422 does not show any oiling/lubrication points.

Most Singer sewing machine manuals are available here: https://www.singer.com/support . The direct link to the manual for the 7422 Advance is https://res.cloudinary.com/singer-sewing/image/upload/v1589905532/Singer-Website-Library/Manuals/Products_manuals/7422_Advance.pdf .

I hope this helps.

I have a singer model number 50 T8E99670 serial number 1120ZHC429406242. I wanted to know how old it is and needed instructions for boiling it. It’s making a squeaking noise when I so that sounds like it...

Singer has many of the manuals for their machines here: https://www.singer.com/support . The current link to the model 50 manual is https://res.cloudinary.com/singer-sewing/image/upload/fl_attachment/Singer-Website-Library/outdated_product/SINGER_50_Sewing_Machine.pdf . See page 13 for the oiling directions. Ismacs.net has information on dating Singer sewing machines here: http://ismacs.net/singer_sewing_machine_company/serial-numbers/singer-sewing-machine-serial-number-database.html . However, your numbers don't match the Singer serial numbers that I know. Most serial numbers either have no letters or one - two letters at the beginning of the number. There was a period when Singer used both a Registration and a Factory number to in the serial numbers. However, that ended before 1900 with the 12K batch.

I hope this helps.

(Note: the manual to which I provided a link indicates the model 50D with a copyright date of 1962. Singer manuals are the same for all letter suffixes.)

How to raise the feeder on singer sewing machine 7436

The feed dog position switch is on the back of the Singer Ingenuity 7436, more or less even with the needle bar mechanism. To raise the feed dogs, make sure that the presser foot is up and the needle is at the highest point. Remove the accessory box by pulling it to the left of the machine. Turn the sewing machine around so that you can see the feed dog control lever. Push the lever down (towards the sewing table) and then move it to the right (away from the motor/control section of the machine). Turn the sewing machine around (to the normal sewing orientation) and turn the hand wheel counter-clockwise (towards you), until you hear or see the feed dogs click into the correct position. Note: make sure that the bobbin winder shaft is to the left (not the far-left or right positions). If this doesn't work, then there is probably a broken part in the feed dog or its lift mechanism. The machine needs to be repaired.

The directions to raise the feed dogs are shown in the manual on page 12. The current link to the manual is https://www.singer.com/sites/default/files/product_manual/SINGER%207436%20INGENUITY%E2%84%A2%20Sewing%20Machine.pdf . Many Singer manuals are available from the support page: https://www.singer.com/support . You don't need to enter the full model number to find the manuals. Include any leading letters and some of the numbers in the model number. Leave off any letters at the end of the model number.

I hope this helps.

Do you have a manual for Singer 774, 621B?

Many Singer manuals are available here: http://www.singerco.com/support/instruction-manuals . The direct link to the Singer Stylist 774 manual is http://www.singerco.com/uploads/download/1284_774-734.pdf . I don't see a manual for a Singer 621B; there are manuals for the 6211. (When you search for a manual on the Singer site, leave off the letter after the number.)

I hope this helps. (Note: you will need Adobe Reader or a similar program to access the manual.) If your model is a Kenmore 774.621, you need to get a few digits to get the entire model number. Try the searspartsdirect.com site, they may have the manual. (Only newer Kenmore sewing machines have documentation available at this site.) Please add a comment clarifying the model number if you need additional help.

I would like a singer harmonie 400 model user manual please

The only model 400s I found were old, like 1940 old. Here's a page of way older docs... scroll down to the 400s and open a few to see if any one of them are the right one for your machine.

I inherit a Singer 281-21 sewing machine from my grandmother, and I know nothing about it. She was a seamstress by trade, and brought this one years after she retired. Can you point me in the right...

You have a high speed (for the time) industrial Singer sewing machine. If you click here you will find a free download of the servicing manual for your machine: it's very comprehensive and includes the operating instructions, but as it's aimed at professional users it assumes the user already knows a bit about sewing machines. Note that on the 281-21 regular maintenance and correct lubrication is even more vital than on their domestic machines from the same period.

I hope that you are pleased with the speed and content of my free answer, if so then please take a brief moment to rate my reply. Good luck with your machine, it's a bit of a heavyweight but should give many more years of faultless use if looked after.
