Members CowpokeNick Posted April 10, 2013 Members Report Posted April 10, 2013 Hello Trox, or Tor! :-) I recently found this Topic about a Pfaff machine and have the same kind of question for you. I might buy a Pfaff that is called 345 H3 6/01 CLN but I'm curious about the capability of this machine. I want a machine that i can sew with in leather. How thick leather is this one suitable for? I also have looked around on the web for any kind of info on this machine but without any luck. I've also send e-mail to two different Pfaffadresses but without recieving any answer, yet..... Since you live in Oslo and I in Skien maybe I could call you? A friend of mine, Knut "Oldtimer" Karlsson in Östersund told me that you know everything about sewingmachines and I tried to find a phonenumber to you, but without sucsess... Best regards Niclas Svedenvik Quote

Members Woodyrock Posted April 17, 2013 Members Report Posted April 17, 2013 A very good source of information on old mechanical Pfaff machines is the Old Pfaff Phorum. There are quite a lot of manuals there, aa well as people who really know these machines. Woody Quote

Adi Hi Adi, you where right about the subclass number, I found the subclass list some other place in my computer. I mailed it to you, did you get it? I had a problem with the timing on my machine and the hook gear was stuck on the the shaft. I could not get it loose to adjust the timing. I had to knock the hole shaft out of the machine to get it off. It was the markings of the gears set screws who made the problems, I had do sand them down and polish the shaft to fix it. Now it sews like a champ. I may use a bit of removable locktite if the gear moves again. Its no clutch on these, I maybe should forget about the locktite and let it move instead of breaking something else if the machine jams up. I might be a good idea.

Members MacB Posted May 15, 2018 Members Report Posted May 15, 2018 Hello - I might just warm an old thread up... I just bought an old Pfaff 345 VR 132 B S. The hook was totally jammed, but the wheel, feet and needlebar moved normally. I got out the hook together with tons of thread and now i have the problem, that i do not know how to get the lower gear to be moved to the left, so it will work together with the hook gear (at the moment they don't even touch each other). It doesn't have a safety clutch, and the 2 marked "screws" hold the bar into place, so i suppose i must loosen the screws on the gear and move the gear to the left... Would it be possible to send me a copy of the service Manual? Maybe I can find some usefull infos. Any help would be apprieciated. Greetings from austria! Quote

Members GoFish Posted February 17, 2020 Members Report Posted February 17, 2020 Just bought a 345 and the seller kindly sent me a link to the manual. Hopefully this link works and helps https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1328774/Pfaff-343.html?page=10#manual Quote
