● The needle threader can only be used
with home sewing machine needles size
75/11-100/16. Check the table on page
26 for the appropriate needle and thread
combinations. If you are using
transparent nylon mono-filament thread,
you can only use needles in the range of
90/14-100/16.
● You can not use the needle threader if
you are using decorative threads or
special needles, such as the twin needle
and wing needle.
When using these needles or threads you
will need to thread the needle by hand.
Make sure the main power switch is off
when threading.
