Sewing Machine Singer 2250 | Singer 2259 | Singer 2263 | Singer 2277 | Singer 2282 | Singer 8280 Talent Smart 2

The title highlights several models of Singer sewing machines, I did it because I think they are similar sewing machines that have only different outer shell, the inside of the machine is very similar.

These are classic electro-mechanical sewing machines of a newer generation. When I say "newer generations", I mean machines that have been produced recently and the insight into their quality has not been tested enough, let me add, that it is a low price range, so you should not expect anything special.

U samom naslovu su istaknuta dva modela Singer šivaćih mašina, to sam uradio zato što smatram da se radi o identičnim mašinama koje imaju samo različit vanjski oklop, unutrašnjost mašine je potpuno identična. Radi se o klasičnim elektro mehaničkim šivaćim mašinama novije generacije. Kada kažem "novije generacije" mislim na mašine koje se od skoro proizvode i uvid u kvalitetu istih nije još dovoljno ispitan, još da dodam, da se radi o niskom cijenovnom rangu, pa stoga ne treba očekivati ništa specijalno.

In the picture we see the main parts of  models, so let's see what it is for:

1. thread tension adjustment

2. foot pressure adjustment

3. take up lever - "grasshopper"

4. thread cutter

5. presser foot

6. needle plate

7. additional surface-box for accessories

8. sewing backwards

9. lower thread winder

10. stitch length

Na slici vidimo glavne dijelove oba modela, pa da vidimo čemu šta služi:

1. podešavanje napetosti konca

2. podešavanje pritiska stopice

3. skakavac-trzavac

4. rezač konca

5. stopica

6. ubodna pločica

7. dodatna površina-kutija za pribor

8. šivenje unatrag

9. motalica za donji konac

10.dužina boda

11.selektror programa

Both Singer 2250/8280 models use the same snap-on presser foott. The package comes with a basic set of 4 presser foott, while the others must be paid extra if desired.

Sewing machines are very simple to perform and use, they are good for those who are just learning to sew on machines. As far as maintenance is concerned, there is nothing special here either, the bulb is changed by removing the side cover, and possibly correcting the pressure of the foot with a coin (position 2).

Oba modela Singer 2250/8280 koriste iste stopice tipa snap-on. U paketu dolazi osnovni set od 4 stopice dok se ostale po želji moraju doplatiti.
Same mašine su veoma jednostavne izvedbom kao i korištenjem, dobre

su za one koji tek uče šivenje na mašinama. Što se tiče održavanja ni tu nema ništa specijalno, izmjena sijalice se vrši skidanjem bočnog poklopca, eventualno korigovanje pritiska stopice vršiti pomoću kovanice (pozicija 2).

The Singer 2250 and Singer 8280 have the classic oscillating shuttle hook, they need to be removed from time to time, cleaned and very little lubricating oil added, as well as the needle plate and the accumulated dust removed with a padded brush. That would be all about maintenance, lubrication of the inside of the machine is not provided in the home version, so it is mostly with all today's sewing machines. Optionally, both models can also have automatic thread winding.

Most vendors list the "automatic hole making" option, which is not true, the Singer 2250 and Singer 8280 can make holes but in 4 strokes.

Also the number of programs is manipulated, for example for making holes there are 3 positions on the programmer which many vendors attach as 3 programs, that is 1 program, besides making holes there are standard flat stitches and 8 more programs. Mostly for the average household quite enough.

Singer 2250 i singer 8280 imaju klasične oscilirajuće grajfere, njih je potrebno povremeno skinuti, očistiti i dodati veoma malo ulja za podmazivanje, isto tako skinuti i ubodnu pločicu i proloženom četkicom odstraniti nakupljenu prašinu. To bi bilo sve što se tiče održavanja, podmazivanje unutrašnjosti mašine nije predviđeno u kućnoj varijanti, tako je uglavnom kod svih današnjih šivaćih mašina. Opcionalno oba modela mogu imati i automatsko udijevanje konca.
Većina prodavača navodi opciju "automatska izrada rupica", to nije tačno, Singer 2250-8280 mogu raditi rupice ali u 4 poteza. Također sa brojem programa se manipuliše, recimo za izradu rupica postoje 3 pozicije na programatoru što mnogi prodavači prilažu kao 3 programa, to je 1 program, osim izrade rupica tu su standardni ravni štep i još 8 programa. Uglavnom za prosječno kućanstvo sasvim dovoljno.
