Dear

Customer:
‘9
Welcome
to
the
modern,
efficient
world
of
the
Pfaff
sewing
machine.
You
are
probably
very
anxious
to
try
out
your
new
machine,
but
we
suggest
that
you
first
take the
time
to
read
this
instruction
booklet.
Your
Pfaff
sewing
machine
is
very
versatile,
and
we
would
like
to
tell
you
about
all
the
wonderful
things
you
can
create
with
it.
We
suggest
that
you
thumb
through
the
booklet
first
and
then
open
it
at
pages
2
and
3,
where
the
most
essential
parts
of
your
machine
are
illustrated.
By
identifying
these
parts
on
your
machine,
you
will
quickly
familiarize
yourself
with
your
Pfaff.
We
recommend
that
you
study
these
sewing
instructions
carefully,
and
hope that
sewing
with
your
Pfaff
will
always
be
a
pleasure.
