Disconnect the AC adapter from the machine
before changing the needle.
Raise the needle to its highest position by
turning the handwheel and lower the presser
foot.
Loosen the needle clamp screw by turning it
counterclockwise.
Remove the needle from the needle clamp.
Insert a new needle into the needle clamp with
the flat side to the rear. When inserting the
needle into the needle clamp, push it up as far
as it goes.
Tighten the needle clamp screw firmly by
turning it clockwise.

To check if a needle is bent, place the flat side
of the needle onto something flat (e.g needle
plate or glass). The gap between the needle
and the flat surface should be consistent.
r Gap

A damaged needle can cause permanent
snags or runs in knits, fine silks and silk-like
fabrics.
