My friend has recently acquired this Jones sewing machine.
'Model Z-620 Foreign'. I've not found a serial number on it yet.
She was after a simple machine for minimum use...she's not a sewer, but could/would be able to sew very basic items.
She asked me to have a look at it to see what I thought.
It weighs a ton
Looks fairly clean. I've been told there is power to it. I've not dared to try to plug it in.
On to problems....Firstly, there is no bobbin case and no bobbins. The only other problem I can see, for now, it that the lever doesn't lift/drop the foot...the lever lifts and drops but the foot stays put. Clearly, I'm unable to try any sewing with it.
I'm not finding much/any information about this machine online. Is it worth tinkering with? I've found somewhere for a replacement bobbin case and bobbins, although I've not ordered them.
I'd appreciate any advice on what might be the best option for it.
Thank you.
Sandra.
