jesper Report post Posted April 1, 2023 Hi Got a "new" machine, Pfaff 1445, with ( i guess) newer motor control system from Efka ( Variocontrol 820 ) and da321. Everything work after some work. But how do i date this machine, the date in manual are 88, the control are from 2002. Seriel number on the machine 644314 I have read all manuals , and the control are set up do what i want. so i think this is my new toy :-) But i could be nice to have a date for the machine. there are many databases for "dating a pfaff" online, but my serial number says 1904 ?? and that is not correct :-) Thank you Jesper Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shoepatcher Report post Posted April 1, 2023 From the color of the machine, it was made in the early 1980's to late 1980's. I had a Pfaff 1245 that color. glenn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jesper Report post Posted April 1, 2023 thank you, could be 80, then had a " second life" with the newer controller . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
