The old plastic gears died and I have replaced them but I have no idea how to set the machine up, that is to resynchronise the shafts' movement. Any advice or pointers will be much appreciated..
Thank you

Singer 527 - how to set it?

There are timing marks on the needle bar. Put the needle bar all the way down, you will see the 2 marks the top one is now lined up with the needle bar bushing. Turn the hand wheel in the operating direction until the lower mark is lined up as the other with the bushing. Now the point of the hook must be central to the needle and just above the eye.
Thanks, that was great! "Ron Anderson" :
