OTHER BASIC PROCEDURES Changing the Needle If the needle is bent or the tip of the needle is broken, replace the needle with a new one. Use the included Allen screw driver to replace the needle with one that is designed specifically for this machine and that passes the test described in "Checking the needle" on page 33. Replacing the needle Turn off the embroidery machine. 1 • Do not apply extreme force when loosening or tightening the needle set screw, otherwise the machine may be damaged. CAUTION ● Be sure to turn off the embroidery machine before replacing the needle, otherwise injuries may result if the machine starts sewing. Loosen the needle set screw and remove the 2 needle. Hold the needle with your left hand, and then hold the Allen screw driver in your right hand and turn the needle set screw counterclockwise. With the flat side of the needle toward the 3 back of the machine, insert the needle all the way up until it touches the needle bar stopper. Pass the needle through the hole in the presser foot, and then use the needle changing tool to lift up the needle. Note ● Be sure to use the included Allen screw driver to replace the needle, otherwise too much force may be applied to the needle, causing it to break. 86 1 Needle bar stopper 2 Needle 3 Flat side of needle 4 Needle changing tool
