A few days ago, a friend gifted (cursed?) me with a Kenmore 158.14000. Her daughter had bought it at a yard sale for the cabinet and did not want the sewing head. The preliminary inspection told me that the machine had been stored in a high humidity area but in spite of the rust on the foot control, there was relatively little rust inside the machine itself. My guess is that the machine was stored in a basement or garage, the cabinet held the sewing head suspended while the foot control sat for a considerable time on the concrete floor. The next thing I discovered was the lack of a thumbscrew needle clamp. You have to use a screwdriver to change the needle. Presser feet are also not held on via a thumbscrew, there is a little lever on the rear of the presser bar that loosens and tightens a screw to hold the presser feet. This means that most presser feet do not fit but a general purpose foot came with the machine and I did manage to scrounge up two other feet that work. One feature I find really neat is this little insert that sits in a groove in the needle plate. You turn it one way for zig zag sewing, then turn it around the opposite way for straight stitching. Saves having to remove the screws and change out the needle plate. When I first tried to sew, straight stitch was perfect but zig zag would only make a stitch on one side. The most common cause of this problem is incorrect needlebar height. At some time, the sewist hit a button or zipper and drove the needlebar up so that now, the needle is too high for the hook to catch the thread. Needlebar height is easy enough to adjust, just loosen the clamping bolt on the collar, slide the needlebar to the correct position and tighten the bolt back down. In order to see the hook point passing the needle eye, I need to remove the feed dog and I didn't have the proper tools with me so I just loosened the needle and dropped it down about 1/8 inch. The result is the same as lowering the needlebar and zig zag works properly. Now that I have verified that needlebar height is the issue, I will remove the feed dog and adjust the needlebar so that when the the hook passes the needle, the point of the hook is just above the top of the needle's eye at all stitch widths. This model has a good selection of decorative and utility stitches but up to now, I have been unable to use them. At first, I thought it might be operator error and visited the Sears website to download an operator manual. When I enter the model number of this 1400, the site returns a manual for a model 14 - a completely different machine. I did find a manual for a 1430, which is close, but not identical. Turned out that it wasn't operator error after all, there is one lever inside the vertical pillar that locks the cam follower in place when a stitch is selected. The cam follower position nearest the operator (where it is in the photo) is zig zag. That lever is sticking so that when a decorative stitch is selected, the sticking lever allows the cam follower to move away from the operator, but does not allow the cam follower to return in the opposite direction. To move the cam follower back to zig zag, I have to remove the lid and push the lever into position with a screwdriver. I have used sewing machine oil and Liquid Wrench so far but neither had much effect. I am contemplating installing a spring on the lever to "help" it into its proper position. Until I figure out a remedy, the machne is permanently in zig zag. Stitch width '0' gives me a straight stitch and that and zig zag is all I really need for the sewing I do.

I promised a reader that I would post a tutorial about the Kenmore 158 tension assembly. As best as I can tell, the 158.1701 (the assembly in question) looks the same or similar to this one. Oh my, I had no idea how dirty it was. This is from a 158.1803. The first thing to do is take the whole kitnkaboodle out of the machine. Loosen the set screw but don't take the screw out. It is tiny and you might lose it. It will release the assembly without coming all the way out. Next remove the hex screw from the face of the tension assembly The indicator ring will come out as well Then you will see this You will have to pry this out. You can see that when you replace it, it will only fit ONE way onto the stud. Next you will see the wavy washer. This should fall right out when you flip the assembly over to get this: Pull this off and take note of the notch on the inside. (I am not the first person to take this tension assembly apart) This is what you get next. The washer is quite tight and the stop washer is even tighter. To get to the check spring you have to loosen the set screw. You have to remove the washer and the stop washer next. Or you could do this before you release the check spring. Might be easier. Check out the position of the stop washer tab. You want it like this when you re-assemble The washer comes off readily. Pry the stop washer off gently. You then get this. The cogged "nut" willscrew off easily. Then take off the spring and the tension release pin stop washer. Note the position of the "nibs" (red arrow) on the tension release pin stop washer. Don't put it in backwards. It won't work. Ask me how I know. Tension release pin Now I admit, I did not take this whole thing apart here. I just spread things out a bit so that you can see how they go. There are three tension discs. One is flat. The other two are concave. Make sure that the concave discs "kiss" the flat one between eachother with the concave sides facing the flat discs. I think that you can see this here. If your machine does not accept a twin needle you will only have two discs and they should "kiss' eachother with the concave sides in. A and E are the outer two discs. If you want to change the amount of "spring" in the check spring, you must move it one way or the other in the stud. The short end of the spring fits into one of the slots in the stud. Can't see it so well here. Sorry. You want things position about like this before you put the casing back on over the check spring If it doesn't work quite the way you like it, fiddle with it. Move the check spring tail one "notch" on the stud and see what happens. Replace the casing making sure that you line it up with the tab on the back of the disc And make sure that the check spring sits in the indentation in the front of the disc. Make sure that you tighten the set screw adequately. Otherwise the whole assembly will twist and you will be very sad. It means starting over, basically. Put the tension release pin in next. It will really only go in one way. The head is the part that comes into contact with the tension release pin washer which goes on next Next put the spring in Then the cogged screw. Just get it started. The Stop washer goes next. It is snug. Don't force it. It must go all the way to the threads. The little tab should line up at the top and should match one of the cogs on the screw. Next comes the little washer and then the numbered dial. When you put the numbered dial on, be sure that little tab on the inside is positioned to the RIGHT of the stop washer tab. It won't twist far enough otherwise. Then comes the wavy washer, the tabbed washer and the indicator ring The tabbed washer sits on top of the wavy washer snugly. Be sure it is positioned firmly. It only goes one way. Lucky us Next put on the indicator ring. It has to fit one way or the other. The tabs on the washer must fitin the indentations on the ring. Line up the white mark as close to zero as you can.(PS the white mark is on the opposite side of the indentations) Replace the screw and tighten. When replacing the tension assembly on the machine you will need the ring that goes between the tension assembly and the machine. It has a serrated notch where a pin from the tension assembly fits Put the whole assembly back in the machine, tighten the set screw and stitch it in. WHEW I marked the set screw scar so that I could re- align it. You can see that I have had the assembly out a couple of times during this process today. New set screw scars. I suppose I could have put that white indicator on the top. This project was a bit of a challenge. I don't think it matters where it is.
