W6 Tip
Use only W6 needles. These needles are optimally matched to your sewing
machine. Needles made by other manufacturers can be too long or too
short and thus damage parts of the sewing machine or cause skipped
stitches.
13.2.3 Cleaning the hook race
The
‹hook race›
must always be kept clean. If dust has collected on the
‹hook race›

lint in the vicinity of the rotary hook can lead to uneven seams or jamming
of the
‹‹hook race››
.
Prerequisite:
•
The machine is disconnected from the power supply.
Required:
•
A brush
•
A screwdriver
DANGER
Danger to life posed by electrical shock
The sewing machine operates at low voltage. There is a risk of an electrical
shock when performing maintenance on the machine.
►
Switch the machine off with the on and off switch.
►
Remove the plug from the mains power socket.
13.2.3.1
Removing the needle
Carry out the following steps:
1.
Press the
‹Needle Up - Needle Down›
button twice.
▼
It is very important that the thread take-up lever concealed by the
head cover and the needle are in the correct position before threading
and before any change in program. The needle is then in the automatic
starting position. Failure to do so will always lead to a sloppy seam,
blockages and jams in the flow of the thread.
