this is peeweepickles  If you have PDF Manuel for this machine I would love to have a copy. I haven't been on for awhile, I have been looking for a Manuel for my Messerschmitt/Bell Sewing Machine for a long time. Thank You Julie

Hello
My Machine is a Messerschmitt 54ZZ there was another model that only did zig zag  a 52 I think.  My machine sews beautifully and has a free arm and the wooden table in the carry case to give a flat sewing surface.  the was a patent dispute with Singer and their 319 model and this machine.  This is a very good read. See http://law.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/FSupp/205/394/2181642/ 
The bobbins used in this machine are smaller in diameter than most of the common machines and added to that they are only 1/4" high ( same height as a Singer 221 or 222K)

I am still on the lookout for some bobbins that fit and if anyone has some please let me know.  I have the manual and it is in PDF format if anyone wants. 
I hope the posted photos come through

Best wishes Julie
South Australia

I have this sewing machine. A friend gave it to me, it was bought new for her ex-boyfriend's mother by his dad.But I have'nt got any of the attachments or the instructions, or manuals. Which I really need, I've been trying to find them everywhere. Is there anyway you could email me how to set the knobs on top so they will work. I've tried everything and can't get them to work. Also the name brand on the attachments so I will know which one to buy for it. Thank You peeweepickles
