Note
• Install the cutwork needle with the color and
number corresponding to the needle bar on
the machine, referring to "About the Cutwork
Needles" on page 15.
e
While holding the needle in place with your
left hand, tighten the needle set screw.
Use the Allen screw driver to turn the needle set screw
clockwise.
CAUTION
• Cutwork needles are shorter than traditional
embroidery needles, be sure to insert the needle in
the needle bar chamber until it reaches the needle
bar stopper and securely tighten the needle set
screw with the Allen screw driver, otherwise the
needle may break or the machine may be damaged.
■ Recommended time for replacement
The cutwork needles must be replaced if any of
the following occur.
A loud noise is produced when it pierces the fabric.
As compared to immediately after the needle has
been replaced, there are prominent uncut areas (the
cut edges are rough, etc.).
Nicks can be seen in the blade.
Note
• When replacing the needles, be sure to use
cutwork needles specifically for embroidery
machines. To purchase the cutwork needle
set, contact your nearest authorized Baby
Lock retailer.
