To remove the bobbin case, rotate the ba lance wheel until the needle is at the top of its stroke. On the Pfaff 84, remove bed cover (13), as illustrated. Lift latch k on the bobbin case and pull out the bobbin case with the bob bin. The bobbin cannot fall out as long as you hold the case by its open latch.
For bobbin winding, disengage the sewing mechanism. Hold balance wheel (8) while turning stop motion knob (9) toward you (see ill.). To engage the sewing mechanism after the bobbin has been wound, turn the stop mo tion knob away from you (as indicated by an arrow in the ill.
Hold the full bobbin so that the thread un winds toward the right and place it in the bobbin case (1). Pull the thread into slot (2) and under spring (3). As you pull the thread, the bobbin should rotate clockwise (4). Leave about three inches of thread hanging from the bobbin case.
To insert the bobbin case into the machine, rotate the balance wheel until the needle is at its highest point. Lift the latch and place the bobbin case on center stud s (see ill.), making sure its slot (white arrow) points up. Release the latch and press against the bobbin case until you hear t snap into place.
To remove the workplate, swing up its sup port and unlock it by pulling out and swing ing up the lever on the back of the machine (see arrow in Fig. 2). On machines having no carrying case base, the workplate support is pressed against the baseplate of the machine.
Upper threading is illustrated opposite. Please note that the thread is placed be tween any two of the discs of tension (20), pulled clockwise around the tension stud and drawn toward the right with a jerk (see ill.). As you do this, hold the thread steady somewhere between the spool and the ten sion.
The sewing foot is raised and lowered by operating the presser bar lifter on the back of the machine (see ill.). A Presser bar lifter up B Presser bar lifter down 12 To draw up the bobbin thread, hold the needle thread and lower the sewing foot. Turn the balance wheel toward you a full turn.
Fundamentals of Machine Operation Make sure the take-up lever (2) is at its highest point before you begin and after you have completed a seam. Always rotate balance wheel (8) toward you (see arrow). As you do this, check to make sure the stop motion knob is tightened firm ly.
Begin by sewing a straight-stitch seam. To this end, push the stitch width control to the right as far as it will go. The stitch length is regulated by turning the stitch length control. The number indi cating the stitch length chosen should be opposite the dot on the left-hand side of the slot.
To sew in reverse or bacictack the end of a seam, simply depress the fingertip control. The stitch width is regulated by pushing the stitch width control toward the left, as may be desired. Various zigzag sewing operations are dis cussed on page 25 and the following pages.
Balanced tensions are essential for sewing. Both tensions are correctly balanced if the needle and bobbin threads interlock in the center of the material. The bobbin thread tension is regulated by turning the small knurled screw on the bob bin case. Turn this screw right for a tighter tension, or left for a looser tension.
The accessory box which belongs to your machine contains several sewing feet for special sewing operations. To change the sewing foot, bring the needle to its highest point and raise the foot. Turn out screw 16 until the sewing foot can be removed, tilt ing it sideways (see ill.
Attaching the Embroidery and Darning Plate Darning Embroidery and darning plate No. 93-030 125-45 For certain sewing operations, the machine feed must be rendered inactive. For this pur pose, an embroidery and darning plate is in cluded in the accessories of your Pfaff 84.
Darning sheer and soft materials is greatly facilitated by placing them in darning hoops. Draw up the bobbin thread and hold both threads lightly with your left hand while the first stitches are being made. Trim the threads and start stitching back and forth across the hole in sewing direction.
Zipper Insertion Attach zipper foot without quilting gauge (which can be obtained from your Pfaff deal er). Stitch length: 1.5 to 2 1 Baste closed zipper on the fabric, then open it. Stitch close to the left edge of the zipper for about 1 inch, guiding the right edge of the foot along the zipper teeth (1).

Hemming 847 551 Attach hemmer foot No. 93-847 551-00 (which can be obtained from your Pfaff dealer). Stitch length: 1.5 to 2 Fold the beginning of the fabric edge twice, making a hem about 1/8 inch wide and seve ral inches long. Place the material under the hemmer foot and lower the same.
Cording Cording is made with two needle threads. When threading the needles, make sure to lead each thread between a separate pair of tension discs (see ill.). To render your cording more prominent, in sert a filler cord. Select the twin needle gauge and the size of the filler cord to suit the type of material used.
Remstitching 93OOl79 f Stitch length: 2 to 2.5 Clear-view sewing foot No. 93-100 179-00 Use a thread which is not too heavy and matches the material being hemstitched (preferably a No. 50 embroidery thread). Insert a System 130 Zwi-Ho needle. Make sure the needle and bobbin threads are the same size.
The Zigzag Seam The stitch width is regulated by pushing the stitch width control toward the left, as may be desired. Never change the stitch width setting unless the needle is outside the fabric. Attach ordinary sewing foot. Stitch length: 2 To overcast the edges of light and medium- weight fabrics, set the machine for its maxi mum stitch width.
Inserting Patches 838 954 u Larger holes can be patched quickly. Trim away the ragged edges around the hole, cutting exactly along the fabric yarns. 26 Cut a patch about 1/3 inch larger than the hole and place it under the hole, matching its grain to that of the fabric.
Inserting Lace 838 954 u Place the lace on the material and stitch it down with straight stitches on both sides (1). Cut the fabric open under the lace insertion (2) and iron it on both sides of the lace. Sew over the edges of the lace with short zigzag stitches of medium width (3).
Changing the Needle Position Some special sewing jobs are made with the needle switched to the right or left of the needle plate slot. This is done by moving lever (19) to the right and left, respectively. The needle position lever is indispensable for sewing buttonholes.

Machine Care From time to time, clean the parts in the machine arm and in the vicinity of the sew ing hook with a soft brush.
