    There's locknut(ring) for when you adjust the foot pressure,loosen that & see what happens.Also have you ever taken the side cover off & oil everything in there including the top & lower part of this bar?
  2. CowboyBob
    It should bring around $1,000.00,there's not much to go wrong other than getting broken in shipment.The blade will need to be sharpened ,oil it up & split away!

    Hey Ken,I'm glad that you didn't have to make the trip too!

    @bikermutt07Your Welcome, do you want to be the first guy in LA that bought one?
  5. CowboyBob
    Your Welcome & if your ever in the neighborhood stop in we have a lot of New & Old machines,thread & etc to look at.

    Ok,the sizes they have are 3/32,1/8,5/32,3/16,1/4,5/16 & 3/8
  7. CowboyBob
    What size do you need? On Superior's page#434 is all the different gauges sizes you can get w/o going to get it custom made.You or we order plate & matching feed then order the needlebar & foot from the 112w page. I don't know of any other machine parts that will fit.

    If she buys that set,she'll need to get a needlebar as that needlebar chuck won't work on her Singer.

    The end of the bracket is supposed to push on the rod,it's probably broken off it the rod doesn't move when you lift the foot.It isn't the easiest part to replace because you have to pull the pressure bar up past where the spring is.

    Is the feed dog coming above the needle plate as the needle & inside foot move back?

    I know a lot of Pfaff's have gearbox covers that are missing & people just put regular oil on them & probably not as often as they should & they've been using them that way for years.
  14. CowboyBob
    The H4 has a higher foot lift & with the 135-35 needle in it the needle would hit the foot with the feet up that's why it needs the longer needle.Your machine shouldn't lift that high UNLESS someone put the higher lifter handle on it & that's why it's marked to use the 190 only.The problem w/the 190 is it's longer so it will flex & break easier than the 134-35.

    The reason behind threading that way is once in a while the thread can work it's way out of the tension while sewing,BUT then when threading like this it isn't lined up with the next tension.SO what we have people do is run the thread through 2 of the holes in the spool pin for alittle tension before the thread gets to this one & it seems to work too.

    LOL,it's a good one!

    Now,this is work writing to 2 Jeffs,Glad you got her fixed & alpha Jeff ,I'm just relaxing watching a movie,my Wife is giving me the evil eye while I'm typing better run.
  18. CowboyBob
    Hey Jeff,Switch the chain around end for end,it's catching on the big end & you want to tapered end pointing down.
  19. CowboyBob

    It won't sew very heavy,uses #69 or 92 thread & does not have a walking foot.Better for material then leather.

    Here's a manual for this machine.The threading isn't too clear in it. http://www.consew.com/Files/112347/InstructionManuals/277ROpMan.pdf 277ROpMan.pdf
  23. CowboyBob
    Theaded incorrectly,you forgot the run the thread through the takeup lever(the part that moves up & down while your sewing & behind the guard in the front)You need to always stop & start sewing with it all the way up.
  24. CowboyBob
    Very interesting,So they just wanted to be different?
  25. CowboyBob
    My eyes were looking @ the machine & missed the heater LOL!
