Changing the Needle

Selecting Thread and Needles
For general sewing, use needle size 11/75 or 14/90. A
fine thread and needle should be used for sewing
lightweight fabrics, so the fabric will not be marred.
Heavy fabrics require a needle large enough to pierce
the fabric without fraying the needle thread.
Always test the needle size on a small scrap of the
fabric, which will be used for actual sewing.
In general, use the same thread for the needle and
bobbin. When sewing stretch fabrics, very fine fabrics
and synthetics, use a BLUE TIPPED needle. The blue
tipped needle effectively prevents skipped stitches.

counterclockwise. Remove the needle from the
needle clamp w.
x Insert a new needle into the needle clamp w with the
flat side to the rear. When inserting the needle into
the needle clamp w, push it up as far as it goes.
Tighten the needle clamp screw q firmly by turning it
clockwise.
c To see if the needle is good, place the flat side of the
needle onto something flat (needle plate, glass, etc.).
The gap between the needle and the flat surface
should be consistent. Never use a bent or blunt
needle.
A damaged needle can cause permanent snags or
runs in knits, fine silks and silk-like fabrics.
