  1. I am new to all of this as well.  I recently found a Pfaff 1245 on Craigs List.  The grease housing was missing also.  I cleaned up the machine, readjusted everything, and mounted it in a 3' X 6' table.  I just use an acid brush and apply grease to the gears often.  Seems to be working out just fine.  

    My machine came with a 3400 rpm clutch motor.  Way to fast for me.  I made my own speed reducer, and slowed the motor way down.  I think that if I keep the gears greased it will be fine.  So far I am really happy with the Pfaff.  I am now trying to figure out, needle/thread and tension combos.
