Inserting the embroidery needle
Embroidery needles of the type 130/705 H-SUK provide a larger eye and are slightly rounded. This avoids
thread abrasion when using Rayon- and cotton embroidery thread. Depending on the embroidery thread
use a size No. 70-SUK to No. 90-SUK needle.
> Raise the needle.
> Switch off the machine and disconnect it from the power supply.

> Loosen the fixing screw for the needle by hand.
> Pull the needle downwards.
> Hold the new needle with the flat side to the rear.
> Slide the needle upwards as far as it will go.
> Tighten the fixing screw by hand.
