I found a wonderful little sewing machine at my local goodwill but I can't seem to find any information on it. I was hoping someone could direct me toward a site that might be able to shed so light on my little machine. It is a Gamble 'Coronado' Brother sewing machine in a hideaway cabinet. I would really love to find a manual or anything on it. It runs but may need repair. I feel so lucky to have found it and would love to use it. Thanks for any and all help!
I have received good and timely advice from http://sewvacdoctor.com. They really know a lot about a lot of things.
Try the Brother Sewing Machines website and/or contact them. As manufacturers, they should have info on this machine. Please let us know when you have been successful, and also in which way.
Did you ever find a manual for the Coronado sewing machine? I am looking for one also.
Hello Amber, and Mary,
Guess my last post did not go thru. I just bought a Coronado in a wooden cabinet sewing machine today at an estate sale. It came complete with manual! It is the Coronado model R40. Not sure if that is tha one you are looking for....
I, also found a machine and also a manual. Are you interested?

This is an old sewing machine and should be simple to figure out. The newer, the more complicated.
Find a sewing machine tech--one who repairs, not sells--and have them give it a once over, cleaning, oiling, and they will give you tips as well.
Just an added post note. The Gamble CORONADO brand was in the 1960s. They had lots of stuff with that name on. Freezers, fridges, de-and humidifiers, MY GUITAR, etc.
Hi, I have a Coronado Automatic Zig Zag Sewing Machine Model TAZ 289 in a cabinet and I'm looking for a manual for it. From what I can find, I'm told it is a Japanese model from the 60's or 70's.
I have the instruction manual for a brother deluxe sewing machine from about that time Model HA 4-B1 Let me know if you need more information :)
I would appreciate it if you email me a manual on the Coronado if you still have it available. Thank you in advance.
My wife just received a Coronado sewing machine from a friend, however no manual. Would love to get a copy of yours if possible scan or pdf. Thanks

I recently acquired a Coronado Duchess, Brother Model C sewing machine. I haven't got a clue how to thread it or anything else.
I am looking for anyone that has information or an owner's manual.
You will need to know the serial no. of your sewing machine and look through any numbers listed on this website that comes close to yours if the Model C is not listed. Then you can get an idea of how to thread your machine. This is the best I can find for you online, but the manuals are free to view/print.

Join the FB group Vintage Sewing Machines, they have a lot of manuals in their files, and members to help you find a manual.
Also, search through Relics for the machine.
