PR EFACE
The Reliable Barracuda 2000-U zig-zag and straight stitch portable walking-foot
machine is remarkably versatile. Designed for boat owners, hobbyists, and small
businesses, the Barracuda is ideal for medium-to-heavy-weight sewing jobs.
SMALL SIZE, BIG PERFORMANCE
With a stitch quality comparable to an industrial machine, there’s no job too big for
the Barracuda. With top and bottom feeding, it produces a perfect, even stitch, even
when sewing over challenging materials.

SPEED OF MACHINE
The maximum speed recommended for this machine is 900 RPM or “stitches per
minute”. Use regular house-hold circuit 115 Volts, 60 HZ. The machine is equipped with
a one tenth (1/10) HP motor with reduction pulley to provide good power at the recommended speed.
This sewing machine can be mounted on a commercial stand. To do so, requires a special
cut-out table top, a one inch (1 ˝) diameter pulley, a special Balance Wheel Item No. 11,
and a maximum 1725 RPM motor.
OILING
Before operating , oil all “metal to metal” working parts, and at the places indicated on
diagrams below. Use only genuine sewing machine oil. Operate the machine briefly on
scrap material after oiling to prevent soiling the work. Frequent oiling is recommended.

Page 7
NEEDLE
Use 135x17 needles size 10 to 23. Use size 22 for most
medium to heavy sewing.
Install needle as illustrated.
THREAD
To obtain the best results with your sewing machine, we
recommend size 69 Bonded Nylon Thread.

PREPARE FOR SEWING
Thread the machine. Then pick up the bobbin thread as follows:
1. While holding the loose end of the needle thread in your left hand, turn the balance
wheel toward you by hand until the needle moves down and up again to its highest
point.
2. Pull the needle thread gently, and the bobbin thread will come up with it in the
form of a loop through the needle hole.
3. With your finger, pull this loop until the end of the thread appears. If the bobbin
thread does not rise, check to see if al least 5 or 6 inches of bobbin thread is hanging loosely from the bobbin case.
TO START SEWING
1. Place the material to be sewn under the presser feet and lower them onto the
material.
2. Hold the upper or needle thread (threaded through the eye of the needle) with the
fingers of the left hand. Turn (he balance wheel toward you with your right hand
until the outside presser foot reaches its most backward position .
3. Now operate the foot control to start sewing.
The above procedure is necessary so the motor will start the machine to sewing. Do not
help the feeding of the machine by hand, as this may bend or break the needle. Also,
damage to the hook can occur.
The machine may run a little slow when it’s new. However, it will begin to “free up” and
run smoothly with continued use.
During operation, the balance wheel of the machine always turns toward the operator.
To avoid tangled thread and jamming of the sewing hook, do not turn the balance wheel
backward (away from the operator).
WARNING: Never operate the machine without material under the presser feet. Your
machine will probably “lock” and cannot be operated until the thread is cleaned out of
the hook race.

TO REGULATE THE LENGTH OF STITCH
Most sewing will be done with the maximum stitch length. However, the length of the
stitch can be adjusted as follows:
1. Loosen the thumb nut on the stitch length lever.
2. Raise the stitch length (feed regulator) lever until the desired stitch length is
obtained.
3. Tighten the thumb nut.

5
REVERSE SEWING
To sew in reverse:
1. Lower the feed regulator (stitch length) lever all the way to the bottom of the slot
in the stitch length plate.
2. Hold the lever there until reverse sewing is completed.
3. Then return the lever the forward position.
