274000-B Presser Foot Arm for Pegasus EX3200

The 274000-B Presser Foot Arm is a genuine Pegasus part that carries and pivots the presser foot on Pegasus EX-3200 and EX-5200 series overlock/safety stitch machines. It connects the presser bar to the foot assembly and controls how the foot lifts and lowers over the fabric during stitching. Best for garment factories and tailoring units running Pegasus EX-3200/EX-5200 machines where the arm has worn, bent or cracked at the pivot.

How To Replace This Presser Foot Arm

1. First, switch off the machine and remove the presser foot and needle plate cover as needed for access.
2. Next, loosen the pivot screw holding the old arm in place.
3. Then, withdraw the worn or bent 274000-B arm from its pivot point.
4. After that, fit the replacement arm and align it with the presser bar linkage.
5. Following this, tighten the pivot screw while checking the arm moves freely without binding.
6. Finally, test-lift the presser foot by hand and run a few stitches to confirm even pressure before full production.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know the presser foot arm needs replacing?

Uneven pressure on one side of the foot, a foot that doesn’t lift cleanly, or visible play and rattle at the pivot point are the usual signs. A bent or worn 274000-B arm is a common cause on EX-3200/EX-5200 machines that have run for years without an overhaul.

Does this fit both the EX-3200 and EX-5200?

Yes, Pegasus shares the 274000-B arm across its EX-3200 and EX-5200 series 4-thread overlock machines since both use the same presser bar and foot mounting geometry.

Can I straighten a bent arm instead of replacing it?

A bent presser foot arm can sometimes be straightened temporarily, but the metal weakens at the bend and tends to shift again under production speed. For a lasting fix, technicians generally recommend replacing rather than repeatedly straightening the same arm.

Will I need any other parts along with this arm?

Usually not — the 274000-B is a direct swap onto the existing pivot screw and presser bar. If the presser foot itself (277112) or the lever (274004) are also worn, replacing those together during the same service visit saves a second machine stoppage later.

Is this genuine Pegasus or an aftermarket copy?

This is stocked as a genuine Pegasus-numbered part, not an unbranded copy, which keeps the pivot tolerance tight enough to avoid the play that loose-fitting aftermarket arms often develop after a few months of use.

Does this ship with COD and pan-India delivery?

Yes, this part ships pan-India with cash-on-delivery available on eligible orders, along with GST billing for business buyers.
