Needles
The sewing machine needle plays an important
role in successful sewing. Use only quality needles.
We recommend needles of system 130/705H.
The needle package included with your machine
contains needles of the most frequently used sizes.
Universal needle (A)
Universal needles have a slightly rounded point
and come in a variety of sizes. For general sewing
in a variety of fabric types and weights.
Stretch needle (B)
Stretch needles have a special scarf to eliminate
skipped stitches when there is a Á ex in the fabric.
For knits, swimwear, Á eece, synthetic suedes and
leathers.
Embroidery needle (C)
Embroidery needles have a special scarf, a slightly
rounded point and a slightly larger eye to avoid
damage to thread and materials. Use with metallic
and other specailty threads for embroidery and
decorative sewing
Denim needle (D)
Denim needles have a sharp point to penetrate
tightly woven fabrics without de Á ecting the needle.
For canvas, denim, micro À bers.
Wing needles (E)
The Wing needle has wide wings on the side of
the needle to poke holes in the fabric when sewing
entredeux and other hemstitches on natural À ber
fabrics.
Changing the needle
1. Use the hole in the multi-purpose tool to hold
the needle.
2. Loosen the needle screw. Use the screw driver
if necessary.
3. Remove the needle.
4. Insert the new needle, using the multi-purpose
tool. Push the new needle upwards with the
Á at side away from you until it will go no
further.
5. Tighten the needle screw as tight as it will go.
Note: Change the needle often. Always use a straight
needle with a sharp point (F).
A damaged needle (G) can cause skipped stitches,
breakage or snapping of the thread. A damaged needle
can also damage the stitch plate.
Do not use asymmetrical twin needles (H), since it may
damage your sewing machine.
