SOURCE: threading a pfaff 9020 sewing

all machines thread the same. TTN tension, take up, needle.
Beginning with the spool, guide the thread through the thread guides to the tension assembly. Pull the thread through the tension assembly and test it to make sure the tension is working correctly.
(To do this test, adjust your tension setting to normal or medium or 5 or something in the middle. Raise the presser foot and pull the thread through the tension. It should pull easily!! Lower the presser foot and pull the thread. It should pull noticeably harder.) If it passes this test, continue up through the take up lever,then down through the thread guides to the needle. Make sure your needle is fully inserted and turned the correct way.( If you load your bobbin case from the left side,the needle rule is normally FLAT to the RIGHT is RIGHT. There are some exceptions. If you have a newer style drop in bobbin or your bobbin case loads in the front then the rule is FLAT to the BACK.

If the thread is looping underneath, you're top tension may be too loose or the thread may not be in the take-up lever. If it's looping on top, double check that the thread is in the bobbin tension or that the bobbin tension isn't too loose.

On my Pfaff 545, bobbin section of machine not turning

The bobbin stays fixed and releases thread under bobbin tension. The part that moves is the hooked arm that is around the bobbin. This is disconnected when you are in bobbin winding mode, so make sure you are in sewing mode. Here is your manual

How to thread the serger4872?

Do you mean the Pfaff Coverlock 4872 serger? If so, the manual shows the threading pattern starting with threading the thread guides on page 14 (page 18 of the PDF). Pfaff has the manual on the product support page: http://www.pfaff.com/en-US/Support/3323 . The current link to the manual is: http://www.pfaff.com/SiteMedia/PFAFF/Products/Machines/Support-manuals/coverlock_4872-manual-EN.pdf . Many Pfaff sewing machine manuals are available from the Machine support page: http://www.pfaff.com/en-US/Support-and-Updates/Support . To find this machine, look for the list of Coverlock machines in the alphabetical list then find the specific model.

ManualsLib also has the manual: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/504967/Pfaff-Coverlock-4872.html . If you Google Pfaff coverlock 4872 threading guide video, you can find several videos that may be clearer than the pictures in the manual. Pfaff has the video of threading their overlock machines here: http://www.pfaff.com/mediafiles/threading_guide/index_en.html . (Flash player is required.)

I hope this helps.

Pfaff 1475 manual

Not sure if your model is the creative 1475. The closest I can find at a service website of Pfaff is 1473. Check if this is similar to your model and it shows where the balance wheel goes.

Also see this Youtube video showing how to insert the bobbin after threading.

I can't remember how to thread it. I know it's a dumb problem. Can't find the manual

There are a few threading diagrams for Pfaff sewing machines here. Just scroll down to the Pfaff section and look for your model number. If it doesn't have your model number, try the nearest one. And it's not a dumb question! :-)http://www.sewusa.com/Sewing_Machine_Threading_Diagrams.htm
