●The needle threader cannot be used with the
wing needle, otherwise the sewing machine
may be damaged. Manually pass the thread
through the eye of the needle from the front
to the back. For details, refer to “Upper
threading” (page16).
●Select a stitch width of 6.0 mm (15/64 inch)
or less, otherwise the needle may bend or
break.
●After adjusting the stitch width, slowly turn
the handwheel toward you (counterclockwise)
and check that the needle does not touch the
presser foot. If the needle hits the presser
foot, the needle may bend or break.
