Guys and girls, I urgently need a manual because my old faithful Pfaff has started acting up right in the middle of something important. I decided to sew curtains from heavy velvet, and suddenly the machine started skipping stitches, and the movement feels stiff, like it doesn’t have enough power to push through the fabric.
Has anyone come across this issue with German sewing machines? Could it just be the mechanism clogged with lint from the fabric and needing a deep clean with partial disassembly? And are there any special lubrication requirements for this brand? I’m afraid to use regular sewing machine oil in case it damages internal plastic gears, if there are any inside.
