Pfaff 335 model question

[shoepatcher]

Ok.  Tell me what you need specially.  parts list?  Operations manual?  mechanics manual?  all three if I have them?   The 1245 was superior to the Consew 226 just so you know.  I have sewn on and owned both.

Hi Glenn.  I would like the ops manual and maybe a parts list. I think that would be beneficial.

Thanks,

Heard

I have bought a Pfaff 335 exactly like @Heard's two months ago. With the machine came an original Pfaff instruction book, which I scanned into a file.  Total size is 45 MB, so I cannot attach the file here. Is there an other option to upload the file in some other place?

@shoepatcher could you describe how to use #138 thread and the few modifications?

The manual you got is from a Pfaff series older than the machine you purchased.  It will work though.  I think I have a later copy as well.

Hi Glenn,

I thought so. I would love to look at your - newer - copy. 

Could you disclose the modification needed for the use of #138 thread ?

ok  You must enlarge the hole in both the feed dog and the throat plate to accommodate  #138 thread.  I always increase the top tension when using the #138.    Also, where the thread goes in both the back and front of the finger tag as it clears the tab on each stitch, I slight shorten the tab as as well as round the corn slightly.  This allows the thicker thread to better clear the tab on each stitch.  

As to the parts list, the one i have for your machine is from 1989.  That is the one for your specific machine.     I have 335 parts list from 1950- 2017.

Thank you, Glenn. I thought there was more to it. 

As to the parts list. I have a parts list "Pfaff 335" "Bestandteileliste" with no "No. 296-12-14075/1077". Is this the list that you refer to as from 1989?
