Insert or change the needle
Attention: Turn power to “off” position before inserting the needle, to avoid electrical
shock! Change the needle regularly, especialy if it is showing signs of wear and caus-
ing problems.
Insert the needle as follows:
• Turn the handwheel (no. 11) to top position.
• Loose the needle clamp screw(no.7) and tighten again after inserting the new needle.
• The flat side of the needle should be towards the back. Insert the needle as far up
as it will go.
Take out of the needle
Inserting the needle

• Take out the single needle, then put the twin needle. Put two bobbins onto the wind-
ing thread guide, same as picture. Two stitches separately insert into two pinpole
of twin needle.
• Other steps are same as threading the single needle.
• Note: Twin needle is only suitable for straight stitch. It can sew two straight stitches
in parallel.
