JJN, Did you ever get a manual for your clicker. I found mine for the Model C glenn

Looks like a problem with the bobbin. No tensions at times. Remove the left bobbin case and check the tension spring. check for sear or grooves in it. Also make sure thread is clearing the bobbin case tab under the throat plate and bobbin case opener is in correct position. Check thread path on the left need from top thread guide to needle. glenn

they are metric. I am thinking 8 mm standard thread pitch for 8mm. need to be 1"/25mm long glenn

I would take the 1245 regardless. Bigger bobbin, higher lift, bobbin winder on front of machine, newer machine. glenn

Pfaff is 2.0mm to 2.2mm if I remember correctly. depends on subclass glenn

it looks a lot like a 211 singer!

There us no way I would hand sew welts and soles on shoes. I build goalie pads. I have hand sewn a lot of them up by hand in 40 plus years. I also have an Adler 205-370 to sewn them up the sides on a machine. Machine sewn pads are superior because they maintain that constant same tension on the thread. Shoes are harder to do. A Mckay insole machine and Rapid E or Landis 12 curved needle will do a superior job and do it a lot faster on the welt and soles. Just my opinion but also speaking from experience. A shoe finisher will also make finishing the shoes and boot easier. glenn

Play in the needlebar. how it stitches. glenn

thanks for the heads up Wiz! glenn

Yeah, but the Pfaff will sew smoother and better. glenn

Contact Allen at Weaver Leather in Ohio. He is in on Monday and Tuesday. They carry parts for the 267 Adler. Should be the same number. glenn

Bobbins should never be filled over about 85%. A totally filled bobbin will cause problems. glenn

thanks Wiz. I was looking for the 1425 manual. I found it. glenn

Looking for a mechanics manual for a Pfaff 1425. Anybody got a copy or can download and send to me. glenn

Contact Eli at Landis Sales in Arthur, IL. He is the expert on that machine. glenn

Great. Glad I could help. glenn

Depends on the parts. A lot have been discontinued. glenn

That is the one I have I believe. glenn

First generation servo motor. Might be a Consew. They were all alike in that first generation series.

Go to Sew24blogspot which is a site Durkopp/Adler has for older machines. Down load the parts list for the 67 class. I assume looking at the part you have a 67-373? Durkopp Adler in Germany may have the part. It is part #067-00-170-0. good luck. glenn

There is a sewing machine dealer in Denver who I believe bought all the industrial sewing machine parts from Singer when they got out of the industrial parts business. I think it is Ralph's Industrial Sewing. Contact them via email and see if they have the part. Hope that helps. glenn

You should be looking for part #33513. It replaced part #33512. Singer quit using that part because the screw would not hold tight to the shuttle carrier shaft. They would come loose over time. part #33513 uses a single set screw that goes into the shaft of the shuttle carrier. glenn

The 69-73E does not have 4 motion drop feed. Rather it is skip feed that they use in binding. It still should make a 4.5-5.mm max. stitch length. Is the fed dog coming anywhere close to end of the the feed dog slot in both back and front of the needle plate? give us a short video or pics please. glenn

Adler should have a mechanics manual for that machine. See if you can get one. The movable knife in the Adler 291/295 series is the one they copied when they designed the current M series that is the 867, 868, 869 machines. It is different than the one in the 467/767 machines. I could help you there. You should have parts list, operations manual and mechanics manual for that machine. it tells yo how to adjust and replace the trimming knife. glenn
