In this video I cover the Sears Kenmore sewing machine model 158.14300 threading and operation.
This is one of their more simple Kenmore sewing machines and goes not take any discs, but does have eleven different stitch patterns including specialty or decorative stitches.

I cover how to thread a Sears Kenmore sewing machine and problems to be careful of, the components and their operation on a Kenmore sewing machine. How to adjust the thread tension, presser foot tension control, the stitch selector knob and how to properly select stitches, feed dog operation, and power switch.

I also go over how to wind a bobbin on a Sears Kenmore sewing machine, how to thread a bobbin, loading a bobbin, pulling up the bobbin thread and checking the bobbin tension on a Sears Kenmore sewing machine model 158 series.

I show how to work a Sears Kenmore sewing machine and the basic operation including strait stitch, zigzag, specialty stitch patterns and reverse. These are one of the great work horses of the sewing machine industry.

Most of the Sears Kenmore sewing machines of the 70's had an enclosed motor sitting in the bottom of the sewing machine. They used a two belt drive system with a power pulley between the belts increasing both power and torque on these machines, making them some of the strongest sewing machines of the time.

The Kenmore sewing machines have an odd numbering system for their models. The first 3 numbers denote the series of the machine followed by a period with several more numbers for the actual model number. When looking for parts, manuals or information in general on any Sears Kenmore sewing machine, it is recommended to use the full model number including the series and period in the beginning to ensure you get the correct parts and information for your machine.

Thank you for watching my video on the Sears Kenmore sewing machine 158 series. If you have any questions please put them in the comments and I will answer them as soon as possible.
