CHANGING NEEDLE

Always change the needle after every

other garment especially when sewing on
polyester and nylon fabrics which dull
needles much faster. When needles are
dull or bent, they damage both your

fabric and the machine. A general rule

when placing sewing machine needles is

that the flat side of the needle is placed

to the back of the machine, when the
bobbin is put in from the front. If the

needle is inserted incorrectly, the stitches

will not form.

To change the needle

1. Raise the needle bar to its highest

position by turning the hand wheel
toward you.

2.

Loosen needle clamp to remove the

needle.

3. Place needle (flat side to the back and

long groova to thefront)in the needle
clamp and push it upward as far as it

will go, tighten needle clamp.

4. After changing the needle, make one

complete Uirn of the hand wheel by
hand to be sure the needle is clearing
the needle plate.

CHANGING NEEDLE PLATE

Although an all-purpose, utility needle

plate is fixed on your machine, for
straight sewing on fine fabric or soft or
very stretchy fabric, you may want to use

the straight stitch needle plate together
with the straight stitch foot, both of
which are included in your accessory box.

To change the needle plate, simply slide

the slide plate as far forward

as

possible.

Remove the two screws holding the
plate in place. Lift the needle plate and

replace.

The needle plate is removed for cleaning

the lint which may pile up between

needle plate and feed dogs.
