Needles
The sewing machine needle plays an important role in
successful sewing. Use only quality needles. We recommend
needles of system 130/705H. The needle package included
with your machine contains needles of the most frequently
used sizes.
Universal needle (A)
Universal needles have a slightly rounded point and come
in a variety of sizes. For general sewing in a variety of
fabric types and weights.

Stretch needles have a special scarf to eliminate skipped
stitches when there is a ex in the fabric. For knits,
swimwear, eece, synthetic suedes and leathers.
Embroidery needle (C)
Embroidery needles have a special scarf, a slightly rounded
point and a slightly larger eye to avoid damage to thread
and materials. Use with metallic and other specailty threads
for embroidery and decorative sewing.
Denim needle (D)
Denim needles have a sharp point to penetrate tightly
woven fabrics without de ecting the needle. For canvas,
denim, micro bers.
Wing needles (E)
The Wing needle has wide wings on the side of the needle
to poke holes in the fabric when sewing entredeux and
other hemstitches on natural ber fabrics.
Note: Change the needle often. Always use a straight needle with a
sharp point (F).
A damaged needle (G) can cause skipped stitches, breakage
or snapping of thread. A damaged needle can also damage
the needle plate.
Do not use asymmetrical twin needles (H) since they may
damage your sewing machine.
