After further cleaning and oiling other newly discovered oil points the bobbin holder rotated freely in the stitch holder. The bobbin is placed in its case outside the machine and that case is placed into another holder on the shuttle shaft. It is the bobbin holder that rotates freely on the shaft without an ability to sync with the needle as it attempts to descend into the bobbin thread area striking the holder outside the proper slot area. At no time does the bobbin holder in the other case appear to be held in a synchronized position.
By hand it just continues to rotate freely no matter the position of the needle holder (without the needle in the machine).The 362 machine had been left exposed in a closet of an ocean area home for many, many years and was, in the beginning, completely locked up. After a preliminary cleaning and oiling it would operate by hand, with difficulty, with all moving parts, needle, bobbin housing, etc.
Working in both forward and reverse. As it was still very stiff further cleaning was done with additional oil points being dealt with. After reaching the point of being easily operated by hand a needle was installed only to find it to have the same problem.No thread, or fluff, appears visible in any of the bobbin areas, yet two different machines that were only cleaned and oiled appear to have the same failure.Any ideas would be very much appreciated. Pictures of both machines can be provided if that would help. BTW the 360 was purchased in 1960 and the 362 was purchased in 1965.
My mom had an earlier similar model Pfaff purchased in the early 50s that she sewed my dad's welding leathers on, as well as, fine fabrics for dresses, etc. It's only failure was a fiber gear, that Pfaff replaced in about 1955 at no charge. It swelled under extended use jamming the machine causing her no end of distress when sewing the leather material. They are very tough machines. Neither (and I could be wrong about either!) are home fixes.
Re-timing a high-end machine like a Pfaff is best done by someone who has invested the time and money in training. I do repair-refurb on Singer and a few other vintage machine brands but wouldn't touch a Pfaff as these are very different no matter how similar they look to a Singer (not much really:). I also won't try working on a computerised model - I don't have the money for training and manuals and wouldn't dream of 'learning' on someone's sewing machine!RE what you will be charged.Service manuals cost in the high three digit figures, and tools to work on vintage electrics are costly as well (but not as costly as the manuals, ouchie!).
To give you an example, I paid over $700USD for a Singer (500series) manual back in the late 90s. Pfaff service manuals are considerably more pricey which is why you should expect to be given an estimate that may well make your eyes water. I have a problem with my Pfaff 138 sewing machine. The needle position is stuck on zig zag, the dial can be adjusted and there's a slight change in the width of the zig zag, but when the dial is set on middle position and '0' it results in needle position to the right and still zigzagging.I thought it was an oiling problem since the machine is a second hand machine and I don't know how it was maintained before I purchased it.
However, oiling didn't solve the problem.Can I solve this problem on my own or should it be fixed be a professional? June 11, 2016 0 found this helpfulI'd recommend undoing it all, Thaaniz. Remove the top thread as well as the bottom bobbin, rewind everything to ensure no thread has a small knot. Check the placement of the top thread spool to see there's nothing preventing it from uncoiling smoothly.
Re-set your tensions to zero (upper and lower, although I suspect the problem may be with the upper tension being too tight). Shellcode interpreter. Double-check your threading instructions and re-thread your machine.Safe to presume you're using a decent quality thread? No insult intended, but sometimes going in search of a bargain ends up in frustration.If the foregoing hasn't helped and your thread is still breaking, remove all threads, again, and try running the machine with no thread. Listen to the sound of the motor. You know when it's running properly, right?The only other thing I can think is that maybe the new needle is in at a bad angle or the screw holding it in place isn't tight enough?
