I got the bracket but the troubleshooting continues on my Pfaff 130. The pulley is tight and I tried cleaning it well and oiling the ends and it was still very tight. I've removed the brushes and the 2 long screws and the two halfs should now pull apart. And that is not happening. I have tapped all around the center hoping to encourage it and it's stuck fast.
Are there any tricks anyone can share that would help? Maybe something like Miriam's spool trick and smack it with a hammer?
