CAUTION
The needle threader can only be used with home sewing
machine needles size 75/11-100/16. Check the table on
page 47 for appropriate needle and thread combinations.
Note that, if you are using transparent nylon mono-filament
thread, only needles in the range of 90/14-100/16 can be
used.
CAUTION
The needle threader can not be used to thread the needle
when you are using decorative threads or specialty needles
like the twin needle and wing needle. When using those
types of threads or needles, thread the eye of the needle
manually. Make sure the main power switch is OFF when
threading the needle manually.
