hi. new to this and have inherited this machine but don't have any instructions. does anyone know where i might aquire some. thanks in advance

I have never heard of that brand. Can you please post a picture?

Yes post a picture.

I do know that Jack is showing up more and more in sewing stores. The company is china based but has been incorporating German technology into these machines for over ten years now.

That’s the machine. Thanks

@poolslot , looks like a machine I would use in a second and very similar to the Yamata. I think if the chinese made machines very smoothed out after casting they would all look much more professional or TOUGH.

Looks like a Juki 241 clone to me.

@adam12, is that 241 a walking foot?

@adam12, ever heard of a Mason MSL 838?

Yeah 241 is a triple feed. Never heard of Mason sewing machines but i did find one with a Google search and it has a Nakajima made in Japan tag on the backside. I believe Juki bought out Nakajima years ago. It looks like a 241 as well. I wouldn't hesitate to own one knowing that

@Adam12 , thank you for looking into this.

sorry not been back on ive been ill fortunately not covid. thanks for the info guys much appreciated.

Hope you get better soon!
