LONG GROOVE

TOWARD YOU

F

ig

. 17.

N.B.

—You will note that the side of the needle with the flat on the

shank has a short groove at the eye while the other side has a long

groove. The thread must pass down this long groove when sewing. If the
needle is not placed correctly in the machine it will not sew.

Particular attention is drawn to the fact that in Machine 201K the needle is

set with the flat side of the shank to the left; on 327K, 328K and 329K Machines

the flat side is to the hack, while in the other Singer family machines referred to in

this hook the flat side must he to the right.
