Fabric/Thread/Needle Combinations
✽
The following chart applies to many different fabric, thread and needle combinations.

HLX5 needles are recommended; however, Schmetz 130/705H needles may also be used under normal
sewing conditions.
✽
Adjust the pressure adjustment dial and the feed dog adjustment knob according to the chart on the
