  1. 1

    Needle system

    Home sewing machine needles (no system code printed) (p. 30). Buy this system; a familiar size number alone does not make a needle fit.

  2. 2

    Size by fabric

    Lightweight fabrics → 65/9–75/11; Medium fabrics → 75/11–90/14; Heavy denim/canvas → 100/16; other heavy fabrics → 90/14–100/16; Stretch fabrics → ball-point 75/11–90/14 (p. 30).

  3. 3

    Fitting the needle

    With the flat side of the needle toward the rear, push the needle fully up to the stopper and tighten the needle clamp. (p. 31).

  4. 4

    Also in the manual

    The official manual's fabric chart covers lightweight, medium, heavy, stretch and topstitching use cases.
