Would it fit like the photo attached?

Hi Constabulary, thank you very much for your help so the set of the binding that you sent (bracket, feed dog, throat plate and binding foot) will work with my PFAFF 345? Thanks

Hi Constabulary, thank you very much for your help. The set of the binding that you sent (bracket, feed dog and throat plate) will work with my PFAFF 345? https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Binder-Bracket-Walking-Foot-Needle-Plate-Feeder-For-Pfaff-1245-Binding-Sewing-/293054013906 Do you have PFAFF 345 and 1245 that's why you know?

Hi Boro, very nice machines you've got!! I have the same machine PFAFF 345 and I've been looking for a binding bracket. Would you like to sell one of your binding brackets? (please) Please let me know, thanks.

Hi Adi, would you mind the share the service manual with me too please? I recently bought PFAFF 345-H3-6/01 CLN. Thanks

Thanks a lot guys, I took the machine to mechanic this morning. I can’t wait to get the machine back and start to make something soon. Check out attached photo, my hand stitched wallet.

Hi Wizcrafts, FYI I recently replacing the motor and speed reducer. Please see attached. I hope they are not causing the problem. (There’s no belt when I took the photo.) I’ve been using it and working quite well.

Look like mine (PFAFF 345H3-6/01-CLN) doesn’t have safety clutch or might be in different position. It’s quite different from the movie below

Umm I have no ideas where are tip of latch, groove, clutch bushing and the spring.

Oh Thanks Scoutmom 103, this is might be the way to slove the problem. I don't understand this exactly "until the tip of the latch is positioned exactly above the groove in the clutch bushing. Now push back the spring loaded pin ..." but I'll give it a try.

Hi Guys, I just took the Bobbin out but the middle screw is too tight so I can't pull the pin out. Please see the videos attached. Top.mp4 >> I used hand to crank - you can see the gear at the bottom moved but not the pin. Side.mp4 >> I move the pin by hand and I can see the bottom gear move but not engage with the main gear (that need hand crank) Anyone familiar with this problem please help. Thanks a lot. top.mp4 side.mp4

Hi Constabulary, I'm very new to sewing machine and have no ideas that thread go over bobbin is wrong way. I would love to adjust the machine to the right setting so that it's not go over bobbin but not sure how to do that. Could you tell me how to do it please? The thread size i'm using is 138 which should be fine for this machine.

Hi Mikes, there’s no thread under the bobbin. I think the safety clutch might popped. ( hopefully I didn’t break anything)Do you know how to fix it with cylinder machine. Should I take the rotary pin out? Is it the plate underneath? Thanks

Hi Wizcrafts, please see the video from the link below do you think the plate underneath rotary pin is safety clutch you’re talking about? I might try to take it out and inspect.

Hi Wizcrafts, would you mind to circle the photo attached to where is the button you talking about please?

I took the bobbin out and yesterday and nearly take the hook out but I’m afraid that I cannot put it back again so I didn’t. Where is the botton on the bed of machine? Inside the hook plate? Could you explain a bit more detail please? Thanks

Thanks Mikesc, but now is a bigger problem, the thing that spins around the bobbin (Sewing hook?) is now not moved anymore. I rethreaded the machine and did some test but there's some thread stuck at the bottom after that, so I tried to cut and pull them out. I tried to take the bobbin out to check but can't see anything. I'm not sure if the cog at the bottom is the problem.

Hi Guys, I've read the previous post and I think this might be the problem, see attached.

Hi Guys, I'm very new to a leather sewing machine and need some help. Please see the attached movie (and turn the sound on). I think the thread is too tight when passing bobbin. I think it makes my stitch inconsistent as it's too much force during that time. Can you recommend how to fix this problem, please? Thanks Thread2.mp4

Is it normal that the thread will go over bobbin like in the first photo? When I did hand crank, it has some forcing sound a bit. Thanks

Thanks Katie, if I take the thread out from that pin, the top tension will be less right?

Is it mean I should loose the spring tension a bit? And if I loose it too much then what’s gonna happen? Thanks

Hi Wizcrafts, Adjust check spring to leave more slack in the top thread - should I make the spring looser or tighter? Thanks

Hi Wizcrafts, did you mean this? Im wonder what is that for too (the middle spring). Should I tight it?
