I have just inherited a Novum 656B Sewing machine. About 30 years old made by Janome, new home. I was hoping to find a manual to go with it. I’ve looked online but no luck. Maybe I would be ok without one? I can use a sewing machine to a basic level. Does anyone know, either where I can get a manual or maybe have some advice on getting to grips with the machine without one? I haven’t attempted any projects yet and I would like to get going with one.

Welcome to the forum knittergee

If you have no luck with the link above the only thing I can think of is to contact Janome directly as I am sure they will be able to help you out. They are certain to have copies of old manuals somewhere

What a shame you have not received the manual yet. Hopefuly it is just late, have your tried emailing them about it in case it has been lost in transit?

I think you just not search it in the web properly.Visit this address:
http://sewingonline.co.uk/novum-manuals.html and you can find your own missing manual .May be you have to buy a pdf file from there but still it will work for you!
