! Attaching needle
With the flat side facing the front, insert the
needle all the way until it meets the end o
f
the needle bar. Tighten the set screw [1]
firmly.
Note) • Set the needle so that the notched
part will come on the rotary hook side.
• The needle eye should not be angled
to the left (when viewed from the
front).
!
!!
! Selecting needle
• When using special threads such as
gold, silver, and rame yarn, use a
heavy-duty needle (#11~#16). For bette
r
finish, paste the waxed paper on the
back of the material.
• In general, use DB x K5 #11 ~ #18
according to the material thickness. Fo
r
knitted materials, use DB x K23 #11
because its rounded point prevents the
knit thread from breaking.
