hi @AlZilla the machine is very old I have been using it for at least 5 years. my impression..is that it was working better "before".

I have just 1 presser feet...and when i remove it (no presser feet on) then the movement is ok

thanks !!

There is some confusion here.  Presser feet for this machine (walking foot) come as a pair, inside foot, and outside foot.  Don't refer to them as left and right.  Your outside foot is with a left toe.  They are available as right toe and with both toes.

When he removes the inside foot, there is no binding, no noise, easy to turn the hand-wheel.

Definitely out of sync.  Maybe you jammed it up at one time and threw it out. You need to do two things. 1st, find out what's making that noise and 2nd, go through each stage of the sewing procecess and make sure everything is as it should be. It's easier with a manual of course but many things are common sense such as the feed dog having clearance all the way round in foreward and backward positions. Is the needle clear of the hook and does the hook point reach roughly just above the needle eye at the right time? Usually when the needle is on the rise. Needle and presser foot bar adjustments for each machine are above my pay grade I'm afraid but the big guns will be along shortly I'm sure. Good luck.

This thread indicates your machine is a clone of the Pfaff 335. Maybe finding a manual for the 335 will give you some clues to look for?  If oiling doesn't help, it does seem that something has moved on you.

HI there I fixed the problem thanks a lot for your tips.

It was definitely an oiling problem. This is exactly the point that was missed and caused the noise...

 

thanks
