Members Oakley Posted September 23, 2015 Members Report Posted September 23, 2015 Hello,I bought a Pfaff 345, unfortunately I've got a small problem with the stitching legth adjustment. I can't turn the knob stronger than 2mm. Does somebody knows how to solve that problem. In the pictures you can see the longest and the smallest length adjustment, possible at the moment. Thank you. Regards, Oakley Quote
Members mustangman2 Posted September 23, 2015 Members Report Posted September 23, 2015 does the knob on that one turn loose, if so that maybe the problem Quote
Members Constabulary Posted September 23, 2015 Members Report Posted September 23, 2015 maybe it is factory set to this stitch length - I´d try to disassemble the adjustment knob maybe there is just something clogged up. I´d also remove the plate left of the knob and check if something blocks the knob. Quote
Members Oakley Posted September 24, 2015 Author Members Report Posted September 24, 2015 I found the problem. The threaded rod is faulty in the last few turns, which prevents the knob from turning. I try to find this part as a spare one, unfortunately it's not a standard thread which would make it much easier. Quote
