=== '''Needle Replacement Procedure''' === | |||
# Loosen Flathead screw, remove worn or damaged needle | |||
# When installing needle, vertical groove faces user, seat needle fully into holder. | |||
# Ensure vertical groove still aligned before tightening | |||
# Tighten flathead screw | |||
# Rethread the needle | |||
=== Changing a Spool === | |||
# Load on new spool | |||
# Cut old spool. | |||
# Tie end of old thread to new thread. Clip any extra and stray material so it does not get caught when you pull it through | |||
# Pull the old thread from the needle side. The new thread will get pulled through the tubing and tensioners automagically | |||
# Cut new thread and rethread the needle | |||
=== Rethreading A needle === | |||
To cleaning cut a thread, put new thread under NO TENSION and cut at an angle. This makes the thread end a wedge and un-frayed which is far easier to thread through the eye of a needle | |||
Thread needle front to back (away from user), raise thread end up and into spring to hold it there. | |||
