should have the same thickness and quality. Be sure to use the
twin needle, the horizontal spool pin and the appropriate
spool caps.
For details on the stitches that can be sewn with the twin
needle, refer to “Stitch Setting Chart” beginning on page B-47.

Memo
• Traditionally a twin needle is also used for creating
pintucks. Contact your nearest authorized Baby
Lock retailer to obtain the optional pintuck foot for
your machine (ESG-PF).
CAUTION
• Only use the twin needle (2.0/11 needle, part
code: X59296-121). Use of any other needle
may bend the needle or damage the machine.
• Never use bent needles. Bent needles can
easily break, possibly resulting in injuries.
• The needle threader cannot be used with the
twin needle. If the needle threader is used with
the twin needle, the machine may be
damaged.
