Vintage Viking Husqvarna Automatic 21A Parts and Accessories


This is a scan of the inside front cover of the Viking 21A instruction manual. It is intended to be used as a reference when reading through the relevant instructions. There seems to be minimal internet documentation on these machines so the scan may also be of use to existing or potential owners. The back cover of the manual has a similar diagram which I'm planning to scan and upload as well.

Vintage Sewing Machine Manuals and Instructions


Most impressive to me about the older manuals is their thorough coverage of the machine, its use, and general maintenance. Generous with written text and detailed images and often running 30 or 40 pages, the manuals do contain a wealth of information. I've often seen them include details on attachments for the machine as well. For anyone contemplating an older machine or that might be new to sewing in general, the manuals can definitely be useful.

Once I figure out how to link to a reputable image/file archive, I have a several sewing machine manuals and instruction sheets that I'd like to bring on line as downloadable pdfs. I'm not particularly pleased with the quality and the prices that I've seen online from various sellers and feel there is room for improvement.

This sounds as if it might have some useful information. Perhaps it's readily available in .pdf form.
