Members TsThorsell Posted September 20, 2013 Members Report Posted September 20, 2013 Hello all you experts out there. I have been wanting to buy walking foot machine for a while now but all that have hit the market here in Sweden have been to expensive. Now I have found a used machine on our equivalent to craigs list. It is a Pfaff and the seller does not state that it has a walking foot mechanism on it, however, I think it is judging by the picture. Can anyone of you look at the uploaded picture and tell me for sure if it is or not? Quote
Moderator Wizcrafts Posted September 20, 2013 Moderator Report Posted September 20, 2013 Yep, walking foot, probably compound feed (triple feed).

Members TsThorsell Posted September 20, 2013 Author Members Report Posted September 20, 2013 Can you see/guess what model it might be and what is the capabilities of this type of machine? Quote
Members Trevor Posted September 21, 2013 Members Report Posted September 21, 2013 looks like a juki 563 or a Seiko to me Quote "Every Day Above Ground Is Good"
Members Ian1783 Posted September 21, 2013 Members Report Posted September 21, 2013 Looks like Pfaff 145 to me. Ian SF Bay Area http://imcinnis.blogspot.com/ Quote
Members Les No6 Posted September 21, 2013 Members Report Posted September 21, 2013 Yes looks like a Pfaff 145 compound feed very good machine and looks in good condition. Quote
Members TsThorsell Posted September 24, 2013 Author Members Report Posted September 24, 2013 Yes looks like a Pfaff 145 compound feed very good machine and looks in good condition. Yup, you were spot on. It is a Pfaff 145-6C H2L which runs very good. Do anyone of you have any information on what the subversion label means? I have managed to find out that H2's use system 134 needles and that H2 type C machines use needle size between 120 to 160. What else is specific to this model? For example what does the L in H2L mean? Quote
Members TsThorsell Posted September 24, 2013 Author Members Report Posted September 24, 2013 I'll add answers to my own questions so that you do not have to unnecessary efforts into it. I have found some more answers such as: C machines are for medium heavy materials, L stands for leather, H2 - vibrating presser lift and the fabric clearance is 7 mm. Quote
