socal Report post Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) hello everyone. i mostly do upholstery work but i like to lurk on here to get info and to see what you guys are doing. i picked up this 1245 long arm. its missing parts but i found a place that can get me most of them. the problem is they want part #'s. where can i find a pfaff parts manual to look up the part numbers. also i took to one shop and the guy there told me somebody made this . i took it he meant its not factory. what do you think . its a pfaff 1245 706/47 6101-clpmn http://i60.tinypic.com/wpn5t.jpg http://i60.tinypic.com/35idp3l.jpg Edited October 13, 2014 by socal Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Constabulary Report post Posted October 13, 2014 The tension assembly should be the same that Pfaff uses on most of their industrial machines. This one will work: www.ebay.com/itm/290790180777 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shoepatcher Report post Posted October 13, 2014 Socal, Go to Henderson Sewing Machine Company Website. They have a lot of parts manuals including Pfaff that you can download. You are looking for the older casting 1245 Pfaff. I have it but it is 122 pages long and it has not been scanned. glenn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Constabulary Report post Posted October 14, 2014 This is for sure factory made. Other models also have a long arm version, this is noting unusual. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shoepatcher Report post Posted October 14, 2014 I think it was stretched by some company other than Pfaff. I have seen ones that came from Pfaff and they look a little different. glenn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
