I just got a pfaff hobbylock 776 and it is very tight when it turns . Could you tell me if this is fixable or not
Everything is fixable, you have a top class machine!

When was the last time is was served, cleaned and lubricated? They need doing every 2 years if you use them or not. Every joint and sliding part needs one drop of oil once a year.

My pfaff 1222e is running slow
1. Remove any stuck material from the feed dog, bobbin area including the hook (pointed object under bobbin). Lubricate as you go.
2. Remove top and end of sewing machine to look at the motor and belt. Place pressure on the foot pedal. Still slow?
3. With bolt attached to motor release the pressure on the belt. Now, place pressure on the foot pedal. Did you notice any increase in speed?
4. Apply pressure on the foot pedal and simultaneously adjust the motor. Adjusting means tightening of the belt and making it move in a straight line. (If it doesn't move straight it puts pressure on the motor so it will move slow.) When you have adjusted the motor to the right position the motor will be at it's highest speed.
5. If the pressure foot is the problem it will require a pro to take care of it.

Own a Janome 4000 and it is working in slow motion. It's computerized but no place to oil it. Has not been used for several years.
although the machine is computerised, the moving parts are still mechanical and may be stiff, try a lubricating spray

Last year I changed the machine engine (PfaFF 1222 E). I noticed immediately that the machine sewed too slow and I thought it was a problem of the kind of engine the repairer had put into the machine. But...
If the machine did sew fast the the replacement motor, then the problem might be that the machine is getting gummed up somewhere. Pull off the top cover, remove the 5 screws from the bottom of the base plate, (4 large screws, 1 small screw), remove the base plate remove the 1 screw from the bottom of the free arm cover. Now you can see most of the moving parts. Spray a little WD 40 on all the areas that you see metal to metal rubbing together, both on the bottom side of the machine and the top side. Don't flood the machine and stay away from the motor area. Plug the machine in, lay it on it's back and run it full speed, or at least till it runs full speed. After you free it up, blow out the machine with compressed air, and reoil with tri flow all the areas again. Run the machine again, and you've started your own tail gate repair shop.

I have a 7570 phaff sewing machine and a new windows 7 PC What will I use to transfer my patterns to the machine
Hi franlove
I had the same problem when I upgraded to a laptop with Windows XP. I needed to buy a Keyspan, which connects via the USB on the computer to the machine via the pc connector that comes with the Pfaff 7570. However I had many problems after that, and found that the Keyspan transfer rate had to be slowed down to 2400. Of course 3D is the most recent Pfaff software that the Pfaff 7570 will work with. Anything older is OK.

Hope this helps. I will look up the steps that I went through to slow the transfer speed from the Keyspan if you need me too.

Good Luck

is the machine easy to turn by handwheel? if not it may be seizing and needs servicing.

if the machine is free to turn by hand it sounds like your foot control is in need of repair or replacement - see a tech.

Pfaff 6122 Problem
Your machine just needs to be tuned up an the part inside that lower and raises the presser foot needs to be re-lubricated.  Lint, dust, dryness and the machine not being used can cause this issue with most pfaff machines (including my 7570).  A standard tune up from your local PFAFF dealer will remedy this.

7570 Presser foot leaver..Slow to dropp down
Good morning,

If it's been a while (more than a year) since you've had your 7570 serviced by an authorized Pfaff tech, it's likely that it's just gotten gummed up and needs some attention and adjusting.

It's definitely fixable, but not something that you'll likely be able to do yourself - some of those parts are just not easy to get to and the lubricants needed aren't directly available.

Hope this helps,

Why would My pfaff creative 2.0 shut all the way down and then restart? Sometimes it will do 5 - 7 times without being able to take a stitch.
