  1. So I thnk I got it figure out BUT i am only getting 5mm height for both feet in max settings. What was happen was, the long bag the holds the back foot was hitting the edge of the top tension bold instead of going inside. This results iit clocking noise or the front foot putting more pressure on the needle plate. So what I did is push the tension bolt down more so the back bar is going inside and stay inside instead of going out when it is going up and down.This lessen the pressure on the front bag and pushes the back foot higher to march the front foot height. See pictures below and diagram. Highlighter in yellow and blue. As you can tell from the pictures below. I am only getting 5mm for both foot at max settings. I feel like I could more since this is a pfaff 335. I think I could probably get 7mm. It is 11mm when foot lever is up. That is something I might experiment in the future.
  2. Not new. I am familiar with german machine. Yes, people do mess up german sewing machines a lot as they have lower tolerance compare to the japanese or americans.
  3. I did that too. When that happens, the smaller feet has a higher clearance that the back. say for example the front feet will go up by 4mm, the back feet will be at 2mm. I even try putting more layer of fabric in the back. when that happen, the front feet is pushing down with too much pressure that the needle plate sometime is bending.
  4. That is what I did. What ends up doing is the front feet height is at 5mm while the back feet height is 3 mm. wing nut is at lowest setting, This results into fabric getting stuck between the front foot and back foot.
  5. Have you checked this video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQihrdtPIxE
  6. Hello All, Got a problem here. Pfaff 335 - already looked at uwe video and other manual instruction and also search other threads but still not fix the issue. The back feet height is not even with the front feet weight when sewing. This results into fabric getting stuck between the front feet and back feet. Also, put the feet height in max setting on the back with the wing nut. I cannot adjust the back feet independently as the back feet seems to be dependent on the front feet. I am stuck and still do not know any other way to have the height balance with the feet? Anybody got other ways? here is the video https://streamable.com/076fy7
  7. Hi uwe, Follow the steps on the video but now I have another problem on my pfaff 335 Soon as I start using the machine, the front feet is pushing more pressure onto the needle plate and i can see the needle plate bend down a little bit? Have you encounter this before? If you have, what is the solution? Thank You
  8. Can you explain this as I am going through the same problem as on my pfaff 335 and I look at that manual and my presser foot is not lifiting or even adjusting at all. Thank you.
  9. I am about to be 35 this december. Single right now. How i see it and I would only want to get married once, if it does not work out. I will not get married again. Also, i would want my SO to sign prenup. Any advise for me?
  10. Hello, All. Looking for these parts per pictures. I wanted to see if there are parts here in the USA before i checked out international seller. Thank You!
  11. You should watch this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avr3pN_udMA
  12. I see. The yellow part is the part that presses on tension pin and releases the tension. Well i guess it is doable and now just needs to order parts. Thank you!
