Hi,
I bought a machine for my girl friend of the internet as she wanted one,
thought i'd found a bargin done everything she needed to get started, it
was an ex display model. But it came without a manual, tried to get it
from the company with no luck. Since i've searched high and low on the
internet for a manual to buy with no luck. I hve managed to thread it but
the thread keeps breaking, i think its the tension, so i assume a manual
will instruct me of this. The make is a Viscount 2000, if anyone can help
it would be greatfully appreciated.
Thanks John

Have you googled for Silver Viscount? There's a main distributor in the UK.

If it's one of these: >

...then I have one, and the manual. The threading guide on the
front: tension should be set in the middle of the range. Make sure you
have the thread in the take-up lever (that nodding donkey thing!) and
that the bobbin is fitted correctly.
I'll try to get the manual scanned for you (my scanner no longer works
here at home).

HI!!! this is encouraging to me... I have this machine and i cant find
out anything about it... it looks almomst identical to that viscount
2000, but some of the stitches are a little different. i want to know
more about it and get a manual etc.... would that manual work for my
machine as well?
