Needles
The machine is supplied with Schmetz brand EL x 705 needles. This is an industrial type needle that ensures proper stitch formation at high speeds. The scarf (dent on needle back) is important because it allows the looper to come near the needle to catch the thread and form a stitch. EL x 705 needles are available in two sizes – 80/12 and 90/14.
It is possible to use conventional sewing machine needles – 130/705H – for special threads and fabrics.
Common stitch problems can often be traced directly to the needle.
•Needle inserted incorrectly. (Flat side should be to the back.)
•Needle not pushed up high enough into position.
•Needle is dull or has burrs. (Change needles frequently; even new needles can have imperfections.)
