You know… that thick book that came with your sewing machine.
But what if you can’t find your manual or you never had one?
Don’t fret! Most manufacturers will let you download a replacement sewing machine manual for FREE. The manuals typically come in a PDF format you can save to your computer or print out for cheap.
All you need to know is your sewing machine’s make and model number to find the right replacement manual from the internet. The model number is typically printed on the top or front of your sewing machine, but it might be located on the bottom of an older machine.
Here are some links to find free replacement manuals for popular sewing machine brands:
| Baby Lock | Bernina/Bernette | Brother |
| Elna | Husqvarna Viking | Necchi |
| Pfaff | Singer | Toyota |
| Janome | Juki | Kenmore |
| White |
If you can’t find a replacement sewing machine manual on any of the manufacturers’ websites, you can also try looking at Sewing Parts Online or Sewing Machines Plus. Each of these websites has a collection of vintage sewing machine manuals you can download, but usually for a fee. You can also sometimes buy a physical copy of your sewing machine operations manual.
Good luck finding the right replacement sewing machine manual. I hope you can get it for free!

Does Your Sewing Machine Constantly Give You Problems?
If you can’t find a replacement manual for your sewing machine, at least get a copy of my book, Sewing Machine Problems and How to Solve Them. I walk you through how to solve the 20 most common sewing machine problems.
Your sewing machine is going to give you troubles sooner or later. It’s inevitable… It’s good to have a troubleshooting reference manual on hand to help you out.
The ebook version only costs $2.99. You’d easily pay between $75 and $150 to take your sewing machine to a repair technician. You can learn how to do a lot of the sewing machine troubleshooting yourself and save money.
