Uwe Posted September 28, 2015 Report Posted September 28, 2015 Joe (Hockeymender) kindly lent me his copied vintage Pfaff 335 Instruction Book and a set of mechanic's service training instructions pages. I've scanned them into PDFs in the best quality the originals would allow, which is overall quite nice. I also ran text recognition (OCR) on the files, so the PDFs should be text searchable. You can download the Pfaff 335 Instruction Book here: Pfaff 335 Instruction Book (old casting, until the late '90s) The service instructions cover various older Pfaff models: Pfaff Service Instructions (various older models) I'll also try to upload the instruction book to manualslib.com to make it accessible to a larger audience.

Members CaroCaro Posted September 28, 2015 Author Members Report Posted September 28, 2015 Wow when a community comes together! The old casting 335 instruction book is just what I needed. My machine looks like that. I am going to download and print it. Thanks all. My 335 is relatively new and totally clean and usable. The new addition 29K-51 shoepatcher from july 1925!! will need some cleaning although everything works. There is a lot of old filth inside. It just needs a good clean I think. I bought WD-40, strong degreaser, rags, cotton sticks and cola. Hope that will help. I will be making a lot of pictures in order to reassemble the whole thing. I love ikea projects but I have never undertaken such a project. As a kid I loved technical lego and not dolls. I have pictures of me in a pink dress with a big race car in my arms. My whole 36 years I always was busy with some project either sewing, embroidering, lego, leather, fixing up things etc. Quote

Members dikman Posted October 2, 2015 Members Report Posted October 2, 2015 Thanks Uwe, you've done well . That's exactly the model I just bought, complete with binder. Interestingly, the label plate on mine says 335-17B, second line just has L, no H to indicate foot lift. Quote Machines wot I have - Singer 51W59; Singer 331K4; Seiko STH-8BLD; Pfaff 335; CB4500.
