Brtz Report post Posted July 2, 2020 Hi, Can anyone help me to understand why SN on my Pfaff 545-H3 has been placed on the brass badge on the column and the mark on the base is empty? (no stamped number apart of small 127)? - see photo. 1. I do not understand why my Pfaff SN is 765631 while similar machines produced between 1950 - 1976 have SN from 4.000.000 to 8.788.456 (reffering to http://ismacs.net/pfaff/pfaff_manufacture_dates.html)? 2. Was my machine a part of any special editon numbered differently? 3. Which digit is "missing" in my machine SN? First or last? 4. What the small '127' on the base mean? A mark of production facility or foundry? I would be pleased to find a contact to somebody who were working for Pfaff, to know the history and development of 50, 60, 70 - Pfaff machines better. Any sources will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Bert Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

C class, M is for leather safety clutch, P is for 4 motion drop feed, N normally means 6mm stitch length. but this has a -05 on it. glenn Edited July 6, 2020 by shoepatcher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
