Members DanishMan Posted December 27, 2018 Members Report Posted December 27, 2018 Dear Friends Two months ago I salvaged four PFAFF 145s from a garage in Denmark. One is up and running with, and I am about to start on the next one. One of the machines is a H3 with a safety clutch but for fabric - not leather. What is the difference between a H3 Sxx and a H3 Lxx? Brgds Danish Man Quote
Uwe Posted December 27, 2018 Report Posted December 27, 2018 (edited) Very often the only difference between the leather and fabric versions of a machine are the feed dog, throat plate and presser feet. The leather versions will have smooth surfaces and the fabric version will have teeth or knurled surfaces on those parts. The parts are generally easy to swap out and you can turn most fabric machines into a leather machine by installing parts with smooth surfaces. Edited December 27, 2018 by Uwe Quote
Members DanishMan Posted December 27, 2018 Author Members Report Posted December 27, 2018 Hi Uwe I had an idea, that the differences were small. I have a lot of presser feet - some smooth and some teethed. It should not be a problem then to convert it to a leather machine. Brgds Danish Man Quote
