Caution
▶ Always turn off the power when mounting a needle.
▶ If the operator mistakenly steps on the pedal while the power is on, the machine will start automatically
and can result in physical injuries.
▶ When using clutch motor, be aware that the motor will continue to rotate for a while even after the
power is switched off due to inertia.
▶ Start to work on the sewing machine only after the motor has come to a complete stop.
1) Inserting the needle
As in Figure 21, place the upper end of the needle closely
adhered to the upper side of the stopper hole ②, with the
needle groove ① facing left. Fix the needle with a fixing
screw ③. (See Figure 21)
2) Removing bobbin
Place the needle ① in the highest position.
And then as in Figure 22, after pressing the slide plate

insert the thread through part of the hook and pull it out
from the end of the lower thread tension adjustment plate
⑨. And then pull the thread through the clearance ⑪
between the hook ⑥ and opener ⑩. The adequate length of
the pulled-out lower thread on the slide plate④ is 50 mm.
Caution
▶ Turn off the power when adjusting the lower thread tension.
▶ If the operator mistakenly steps on the pedal, the machine will start automatically and can cause physical
injuries.
▶ When using the clutch motor, be aware that the motor will continue to rotate for a while after the power is
switched off due to inertia.
▶ Start to work only after the motor has come to a complete stop.
