NEEDLE 51ZE

Use KENMOtLE needles. The size of the needle should conform to the size of the thread and both should be suitable to the material.

The same size thread should be used in the bobbin as on the upper part of the machine for ordinary sewing.

Never use a bent needle nor one with a blunt point.

This is the exact length of the needle to

be used in your machine. Comparison

with this illustration will determine

the

needle

you have is the cor-

 

rect one

for

your

machine.
