How do you change the belt on a model 201 Singer sewing machine?
Not all 201s use motor belts. Those made in the U.S. are directly driven through a gear system. If your 201 was made in the U.K., it will use a belt drive. In that case, you loosen the one bolt that attaches the motor bracket to the body of the machine, place the new belt around the balance wheel and the motor pulley, slide the motor bracket up or down so the belt is just tight enough to drive the machine without slipping, and tighten the bracket attaching screw.

I have the 201 manufactured in 1953. I have been doing much research on the 201 and 201-2 for the last couple years. In good working condition with cabinet you are worth to a collector about $150.00. Collectors love the 201 class because it will sew through demin leather and heavy fabics with ease. It is also a very quiet machine. Good luck and happy sewing.

How much is an 1878 Singer sewing machine worth?
Vintage sewing machines are valued much like vintage automobiles. Just saying you have a 1871 Singer sewing machine is not enough to establish the value. Several other factors must be considered: - Condition: Is it a rusty hulk, or shiny, showroom shape? - Model: Each manufacturer made several machines for different pocketbooks, just as with autos, the luxury models usually retain their value better than the utility models. - Configuration: Is your old machine mounted in a treadle base, or was it converted to electrical operation and moved to a portable carrying case? Often, the treadle cabinet is worth more than the machine itself! - Accessories: Does the machine have its instruction manual and full complement of accessories that came with it? Are there any additional accessories that were purchased later? Then there are other issues that can affect the selling price of a vintage sewing machine: - Location: If you live in an upscale U.S. neighborhood, probably very few buyers will be interested in an average condition old sewing machine. If you live in an area with a large number of lower income families, they might want an old, reliable sewing machine to actually sew on. - Furniture value: If your machine is in a nice wood cabinet, some may be interested in it purely for its decorative value. Others will shy away because they don't have room for a cabinet or it does not match their décor. Some buyers will only want a portable model they can stash away in a closet when not in use. - Shipping: If you are only willing to sell locally, your market will be limited. If your machine is small enough to ship, listing it on Ebay might bring a quicker sale and higher price. Speaking of Ebay, that is probably the best place to research prices for old sewing machines. Look for machines of the same model and age, in the same condition. Note the accessories that come with it and see how closely your item matches the Ebay item.
