Can't get my presser foot to fall down when I let go of the lifter on my Pfaff 6085 sewing machine

Question 1

1answer

Error message on Pfaff 7570 is "bring presser foot lifter to sewing position?" Is this a fatal error or is this a procedure that has to be done before the machine will operate?

Assuming that the presser foot lifter is working, this shouldn't be a fatal error. The presser foot has to be down to sew. The lifter needs to be in the down position to put the foot down.

The manual for the Pfaff Creative 7570 is available on the product page: http://www.pfaff.com/en-US/Machines/creative-7570 . The direct link to the manual is http://www.pfaff.com/SiteMedia/PFAFF/Products/Machines/Support-manuals/Creative_7570-manual-EN.pdf?ext=.pdf . See page 32 (page 36 of the PDF) of the manual to see a picture of the presser foot lifter.

I hope this helps.

I am having difficulty find info on your machine, but this may be helpful if your machine has a presser foot adjustment:

When I press the foot pedal down, the presser foot goes up, then stops. Nothing else happens.

Google for a manual or service guide.

My Pfaff 7570 was sewing great and then the presser foot lifter was difficult to move to the up position. Within an hour of sewing the pressor foot lifter was still difficult to move up, but now won't come...

open it up and lubricate that shaft with vaseline..or vegetable oil..work it up and down.. may be just stiff..

I have a pfaff hobbylock 796.

Has any little kids been around lately? Have they had access to your sewing area and machine? (thinking perhaps the pressure foot tension has been tightened down) If it has been tightened, losen it a couple turns, see if that helps (remember, left to loosen, right to tighten)

When is the last time you oiled this machine? Typically sergers require a clean and oil each time you go to use them. Locate the bar that correlates to the presser foot add a drop of oil to the bar and let it seep in. After a few minutes try lifting the presser foot.

Also does the presser foot lever move at all?

Can't lift handle for my foot presser

Take the machine apart to the point where you can see the pivot point for the presser bar lifter and spray WD40. Let sit for a few hours and try again. Repeat until the presser bar lifter releases.

Sounds as if the spring for the presser bar is broken OR the presser bar is dirty and needs cleaned and oiled.

Good day!!!

If your screen stated"main motor blocked" then I suggest you remove the thread,both the top and the bottom.Please change the needle too.but If the problem is unsolved,kindly loosen or unscrew the casing which is in the front of the bobbin, then look/find anything that might be obstructing the bobbin. check again the thread, bobbin and needle.Also for the last thing put an oil to the parts which you think it needs it like the moving parts re-start or reboot it then leave for a whole night.
Thank you and good luck...
