6. Machine Works Heavily Cause: Hook raceway lacks oil or is obstructed by pieces of thread. Mechanism clogged by inferior oil. Bobbin winder working while sewing. 7. Motor idles Cause: Motor disengaging lever raised. Remedy: Clean and oil hook raceway. Use only Pfaff sewing machine oil - never salad oil or glycerine. Stop bobbin winder. Remedy: Flick lever down (see page 5). Thread Jamming The Pfaff rotary hook will not normally jam, even if the machine should be handled improperly. If thread should happen to jam in the hook raceway, the power of the motor in most instances will be sufficient to overcome hard working of the mechanism. If this action should not free the jammed thread put a drop of kerosene into the hook raceway, jerk the balance wheel back, then rock it back and forth. 27
