Members Norwegian Posted July 27, 2015 Members Report Posted July 27, 2015 Hi! I need a few small parts for a old Pfaff 134-06. I have the part numbers, but that is as far as I have come.. Can anyone recommend a good supplier for old machine parts? Any ideas welcome! Rik Quote
Members Constabulary Posted July 27, 2015 Members Report Posted July 27, 2015 You will have a hard time finding parts for old Pfaff machiens but anyway sometimes parts from other machine may fit. Please post some pictures and numbers of the parts please. Quote
Members Norwegian Posted July 28, 2015 Author Members Report Posted July 28, 2015 (edited) Thank you for answering! This is what I need.. Needle holder and screw.. It looked like everything was in place when I picked the machine up, but it wasn't.. Something else was screwed on that doesn't hold the needle good enough.. It was worth the risk, didn't pay for the machine, but I really want to get it running.. Edited July 28, 2015 by Norwegian Quote
Members Constabulary Posted July 28, 2015 Members Report Posted July 28, 2015 Pfaff once has changed their parts numbers so with the old number its hard to find something. The only one I have found is this: http://www.wdn.de/artinfo.php?artnr=A%20%2014852 Its a needle holder for the Pfaff 34 - the smaller version of the Pfaff 134. I´m not 100% sure if it is the same but I think so. But as always it is quite expensive like all Pfaff parts This could also be an option - it is for the zig zag version of the 134 http://planetecouture.com/en/needle-clamps/8055-serre-aiguille-pfaff-138.html Quote
Members Norwegian Posted July 28, 2015 Author Members Report Posted July 28, 2015 Thanks again! This is what I have.. The "holder" in the pictures is what came with the machine.. But it will not hold the needle good enough.. Am I missing something here? Do you think it's the original part? I feel like there is something missing.. Since I don't have a machine to compare to, it's complicated, soooo much easier with the old Singers I have. Quote
Uwe Posted July 28, 2015 Report Posted July 28, 2015 Just from looking at your pictures, it seems that your needle holder "might" work if you turn it around to that the screw is on the left and presses against the needle directly. As it is in the pictures, the geometry of the needle and bar may not allow it to press the needle properly against the needle bar to hold it tight. Quote
Members Norwegian Posted July 29, 2015 Author Members Report Posted July 29, 2015 Thank you, Uwe, I've tried that.. And I've tried a couple of other holders too.. Won't work.. And as Constabulary says, the Pfaff parts are kind of expensive, so I'm not sure if I want to take the chance and buy new ones for another model.. Quote
Members Constabulary Posted July 29, 2015 Members Report Posted July 29, 2015 w/o having it in front of me to me the needle holder looks good. Are you probably using the wrong needle system with a too small shank diameter ? Quote
Members Norwegian Posted July 30, 2015 Author Members Report Posted July 30, 2015 I will try other needle systems, thank you! Quote
