DESCRIPTION

MACHINE 142w25 has one needle and a rotary sewing hook and

makes the lock stitch.

It Is designed for mending and darning stockings, socks, knit underwear, linen, curtains, etc., and Is used In laundries, hotels, hospitals and other public or private Institutions where darning equipment Is required.

It has a cylinder bed which enables It to conveniently darn tubular shaped articles, the diameter of the cylinder being small enough to accommodate a baby's sock.

When desired, the machine can be Instantly converted Into a flat bed machine by attaching the flat work plate which will be furnished, on order, at additional charge.

The operator can freely move the work In any direction while darning as there Is no feeding mechanism and the presser foot

rises automatically after each stitch.

The machine can be equipped with Cylinder End Cover and

Thread Cutter complete 241230, which Is desirable when darning socks, etc., since It permits the bobbin thread to be cut close to the darn without removing the sock from the cylinder, thus saving time and thread.
