Replacing the Needle
This section provides information on sewing machine needles.
Needle precautions
Be sure to observe the following precautions concerning the handling of the needle. Failure to observe these 
precautions is extremely dangerous, for example, if the needle breaks and fragments are dispersed. Be sure to 
read and carefully follow the instructions below.
Needle types and their uses
The sewing machine needle that should be used depends on the fabric and thread thickness. Refer to the 
following table when choosing the thread and needle appropriate for the fabric that you wish to sew.
Only use home sewing machine needles. Use of any other needle may bend the needle or 
damage the machine.
Never use bent needles. Bent needles can easily break, possibly resulting in injuries.
