Members AlfredV Posted November 12 Author Members Report Posted November 12 Thank you for your answer. I saw that file too but cannot find the parts, strange enough. I wil send a picture and explain more my question. Quote
Members AlfredV Posted November 13 Author Members Report Posted November 13 I have the idea that the upper part with the teeth down should be locked in the lower part with the teeth up when the wheel is down on the table. Now it is not driven i guess. Quote
Members Constabulary Posted November 14 Members Report Posted November 14 I have never seen anything like that - I have no clue! 🤔 I´m not questioning the quality of Pfaff machine but Pfaff IMO made a lot of thing way tooooooo complicated. It it was a Singer 236 I would have a belt driven roller foot.

Members AlfredV Posted November 15 Author Members Report Posted November 15 Yes . That are the parts. Thank you. Quote
Members AlfredV Posted November 15 Author Members Report Posted November 15 Meanwhile i did some searching and reading and found this drawing. That gives me a kind of answer. That the teeth from the upper and lower part should lock in to each other. Just now, AlfredV said: Meanwhile i did some searching and reading and found this drawing. That gives me a kind of answer.
