Singer Manuals

Reference Works

These manuals are scans taken from original Singer manuals that have been converted to Adobe PDF format for viewing/printing. Some of the original manuals are nearly 100 pages and the resulting files can be rather large, even when compressed into PDFs.

If you will right-click the links below and choose "save as" you can store these files on your own system. This is usually better than trying to view them within your browser.
