PfaFF Creative 7570 - Page 4 Questions & Answers
My Pfaff 7570 will not
Could be motor brushes or a bad base plate board circuit board. That is a great machine but may be hard to find someone to fix this problem. Take to only to a pfaff repair shop. Motor brushes should be around $50-100 repair and base plate could be up to $500. I would also check it with a nother foot control just to be safe.
If your husband wants to do the job here are some tips.
The motor is right behind the display board, you will need to remove the diplay and motor to get to the brushes.
For the base plate board, Remove the 4 large flatblade screws to get the base plate off.
Right next to the trasnformer there 3 small fuses, (they are back and say fuse on them) if one is very carroded and white there is a good chance that is bad and replacing it will fix the probem.
Lots of work for bolth if the repairs and I recomend you take your machine in.
Zig Zag stitch isn't consistent top stitch is sporadic
Remove all the thread from your machine. Make sure to clean around the feed dogs and bobbin area. Loosen the top tension disk all the way to zero & raise the presser foot. Dampen a piece of pearl cotton with rubbing alcohol and pull the pearl cotton gently down between the tension disk a couple of times. Consult your owner's manual and oil as instructed in the manual using ONLY fresh good quality sewing machine, applying 1-2 drops each spot indicated. Install a brand new needle. Avoid old, fuzzy, or bargain bin thread. With the presser foot in the RAISED position, rethread the top thread--verify it is threaded correctly. Reset the upper tension to about halfway between the high & low number. Make sure the bobbin case is threaded properly and verify the bobbin is turning the correct direction in the bobbin case. Install bobbin case in the machine. Test stitch on a scrap piece of fabric.
If it continues to malfunction, you may need to take it for service.

How to bring sewing foot holder to embroidery position
Hi, I hope this helps. If it doesn't post again.
"Check:
Place the sewing foot under the sewing foot
holder so that the pins of the foot snap into
the sewing foot holder when the presser foot
lifter is lowered.
Please check that the sewing foot is properly
engaged by raising the presser foot lifter."
Question: Are you using top feed? If so:
"For all sewing jobs with the top feed, only use sewing feet with Cutout at the back (OA, 1A, 3, 4)."
Embroidery foot Part No.: 98-694-840-00 will not work with top feed.
Also, except for eyelets, the darning foot can be used for embroidery.
I'm not sure what you're trying to do :) darn or embroider :); I'm not sure what mode you're working in either; embroidery mode?
Darning with straight stitch
Program 00
Fit darning foot No. 6.
Set the needle at its highest position by turning
the handwheel, and push the pin of the darning
foot fully into the hole of the sewing foot holder
slightly pressing the darning foot between thumb
and forefinger. When doing this, the guide fork
should place itself around the presser bar and the
wire must be behind the fixing screw.
Darning position:
Lower the presser foot lifter pressing it lightly to
the rear until it snaps into the darning position.
Important Only in this position you have the
optimum thread tension for darning.
• Place the darning work in the darning hoop.
• Lower the feed dog.
• Pull up the bobbin thread and hold the threads
when you start sewing.
• Now guide the fabric back and forth evenly;
the length of the darn will be set by the size of
the hole. As you are determining the stitch
length yourself while sewing with the feed dog
lowered, you should sew at an even speed.
When you have reached the width of the dam
aged area, darn over the damaged area again
from right to left.
This guarantees a durable darn.
TIP: The faster you sew, the easier and more even
the darning will be. It you are moving the workpiece
too slowly, small knots will appear on the
wrong side of the fabric."
Whether working with terry-cloth or woven fabric,
with the help of the darning foot and the pro
gram 02 you can embroider initials of your own
design
Drop the feed dog and insert the darning foot.
Put the machine into the darning position.
Spread the fabric in an embroidery hoop and
embroider in accordance with program 02.
Lower feed dog
If the feed dog is not lowered for embroidering, the
machine does not embroider when the foot pedal
is pressed and the message appea rs:
Lower feed dog
ok?
The feed dog must be lowered in embroidery
mode.
