CAUTION
●Be sure to insert the needle all the way
up until it touches the needle bar
stopper and securely tighten the needle
set screw with the Allen screw driver,
otherwise the needle may break or the
machine may be damaged.

hook of the automatic needle-threading
mechanism will not pass through the
eye of the needle during automatic
needle threading, and the hook may
bend or the needle cannot be threaded.
●If the hook of the automatic needle-
threading mechanism is bent or
damaged, contact your authorized
dealer.
