How do I change the needle ?
-
Always press
on the screen to lock all keys and buttons before changing the needle. If
is not pressed and the [Start/Stop] button or another operation button is pressed accidentally, the machine will start and injury may result.
- Use only home sewing machine needles. Other needles may bend or break and may cause injury.
- Never use a bent needle. A bent needle will easily break and may cause injury.
To check the needle correctly, place the flat side of the needle on a flat surface. Check the needle from the top and the sides. Throw away any bent needles.
