Top thread oiler?

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

this little gadget came with my "new" Pfaff 545 today. It seems to be some kind of top thread oiler (with the wick missing).

There's no brand name or the like printed on it anywhere. It attaches to the front plate of the machine with two bolts.

I've never seen something like that before (besides the "bathtubs" on top of 45 or 29k's). Does anyone know anything about it?

TX in advance, Pete...

G'Day, I've only seen these oilers on the CB 4500's  for when the needle gets hot , after extended use on really thick leather jobs no doubt.

I've never had the use for one, but  now I know what the extra screw holes on the top of my machine are for.
