Pfaff 467 User Manual

If the machine is fitted with an additional inching device, this device is attached to the Stop
motor and controlled by depressing the treadle for forward sewing. When the tip of this treadle
is depressed slightly, the inching device is energized for slow stitch-by-stitch sewing. As you
continue to press down the tip of the treadle, the sewing speed increases until top speed is
attained. If you want to sew at high speed right away, quickly press the tip of the treadle
down as far as it will go.
When you have to turn a corner or sew an intricate section of the seam, relieve the pressure
on the treadle until the inching device the pressure on the treadle until the inching device
becomes operative and the machine sews stitch by stitch.
If you allow the treadle to return to its neutral position, the needle of subcl. -900/1 and -900/2
machines is lowered automatically. To bring the needle of a subcl. -900 machine to its lowest
position, press down the heel of the right treadle. The work can then be turned and sewing
be resumed.
After sewing has been completed, depress the heel of the right treadle on subcl. -900/1 and
-900/2 machines, or the heel of the left treadle on subcl. -900 machines. This action causes
the needle to be raised to its highest point and both threads to be trimmed to the proper length.
When the treadle is returned to its neutral position after the threads have been trimmed, the
take-up lever remains at its highest point and the needle is positioned about or 8.0 mm,
above the needle plate.
The work can now be easily removed and new work be inserted.
Machines fitted with automatic thread trimmer can be switched from full speed to thread
trimming without slowing the machine down first.
Raising the Needle without Thread Trimming
Machines fitted with needle positioner and automatic thread trimmer can, in addition, be
equipped with a knee lever which raises not only the presser foot, but also the needle, without
Initiating the thread trimming action.
On these machines, a light pressure against the knee plate raises the presser foot and a stronger
pressure exerted subsequently also raises the needle to its highest point so that the work can
be re-positioned.
