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 the machine off and disconnect it from the power supply system.
> Remove the presser foot.
> Loosen the fixing screw using the grey Torx screwdriver.
> Pull the needle down.
> Hold the needle with the flat side to the back.
> Insert the needle as far as it will go.
> Tighten the needle clamp using the grey Torx screwdriver.
Selecting the needle
After having changed the needle, it can be checked whether or not it is suitable to be used in combination
with the selected stitch plate.
> Touch the icon «Needle selection».
> Select the inserted needle.
– If the selected needle is suitable in combination with the stitch plate, embroidering can be started.
– If the selected needle is not suitable in combination with the stitch plate, starting the machine is
automatically blocked.
Selecting needle type and needle size
Convenient memory function: To prevent a loss of information, the needle type and the needle size can be
saved additionally on the machine. The saved needle type and the saved needle size can be checked at any
time.
