In this video I demonstrate how to service the singer 301 sewing machine and the motor in order to keep it in the best possible condition

I go over the hook, bobbin and bobbin case as they are very unique. I also cover threading, tension and general use of the singer 301

The singer 301 is the original slant needle machine, first built in the 1950's with an enclosed motor that goes from bottom to top.

After World War II, 1939-1945, most sewing machine manufacturers were marketing the same machines they sold prior to the war. Singer with the Models 99-13, 128, 66-18, 15-88, 15-91, 201 and 221. There was a very desperate need for change with not only the family sewing machine but also for educators and high school home economic classes.

Fortunately, Singer was already engineering a new machine to introduce for its 100th Anniversary that would revolutionize the sewing-machine-of-tomorrow with a dramatic departure in design to make home sewing easier and more convenient. A machine unlike any other in the past 100 years of sewing machine production.

On 17 November 1944 Singer Manufacturing Company applied for a patent for the 30. Its primary objective to provide an improved sewing machine which will afford better visibility at the stitching point. The needle-bar and the presser-bar are inclined rearward between eight and sixteen degrees to a vertical plane.

The inclined needle bar would become known as the "Slant-needle" and engineering of this new machine would continue over the next several years. During that time Singer started construction on the new Anderson, South Carolina factory that was being built to specifically manufacture the new slant-needle sewing machines.
