Chapter 2 Preparation of Embroidery Machine 3-3 Replacing and Selecting Needle * Relationship between materials and needles Material Needle Needle thickness Denim Leather #14, #16, #18 Handkerchief DB × K5 #9, #10 Shirt Towel #11, #12, #13 ! Selecting needle • When using special threads such as gold, silver, and rame yarn, use a heavy-duty needle (#11~ #16). For better finish, paste the waxed paper on the back of the material. • In general, use DB×K5 #11 ~ #18 according to the material thickness. For knitted materials, use DB×K23 #11 because its rounded point prevents the knit thread from breaking. [1] [2] W1242Q ! Removing needle Loosen the set screw [1] and remove the needle [2]. ! Attaching needle With the flat side facing the front, insert the needle all the way until it meets the end of the needle bar. Tighten the set screw [1] firmly. • Set the needle so that the notched part will come on the rotary hook side. • The needle should not be angled to the left (when viewed from the front).
