Pfaff 238-0 User Manual

The oil which has accumulated in this bottle may be returned to the oil reservoir without
prior cleaning. After the oil has circulated in the machine several times, it Is advisable
to filter it through a piece of linen before it is returned to the reservoir. This will not
Impair its lubricity in the least. Used oil, naturally, may be employed for other lubrication
purposes as well.
All other oiling points which are marked by arrows in Figs. 3, 4, 5, 7 and 8 have to be
oiled by hand.
Special care should be taken in applying oil to the large oiling felt which supplies oil
to the needle vibrating eccentric and can be reached through aperture F (Fig. 5). This
pad should be soaked with oil regularly.
Put one drop of oil into the hook raceway each day the machine is in operation. Fre
quently take off the needle plate and remove the lint which has accumulated on its
underside and on the feed dog. This is very Important because the lint contains small
particles of dressing which have an abrasive effect on the sewing hook and, in time,
will cause excessive wear.
