Insert a type 130/705H, size 100/16 Wing
needle.

your machine. Must be purchased separately.

Memo
• For details on each stitch, refer to the
“STITCH SETTING CHART” on page S-67.
CAUTION
• Be sure the needle does not strike a basting
pin, or any other objects, during sewing. The
thread could tangle or the needle could break,
causing injury.
Memo
• Use a light to medium weight homespun
fabric with a little stiffness.
CAUTION
• The “Automatic Threading” button cannot be
used. Thread the wing needle by hand, from
front to back. Using the “Automatic
Threading” button may result in damage to the
machine.
• A more attractive finish can be obtained if you
use a “130/705H Wing” needle when sewing
these patterns. If using a wing needle and the
stitch width has been set manually, check that
the needle will not touch the presser foot by
carefully rotating the handwheel toward you
(counterclockwise) before starting to sew.

“STITCH SETTING CHART” on page S-67.
