Sewing machine needle double universal SCHMETZ UNIVERSAL TWIN ZWI-No.3/90 (1pc.)

TWIN needles with a 3 mm gap.

How to use the "Universal Twin Needle" on a sewing machine

1. Installation

• Turn on the double mode or use the special button on your sewing machine (if available) to limit the stitch width. This prevents the needle from hitting the needle plate, which could cause needle breakage.
• Check the thread tension by making some test stitches on a scrap piece of fabric.

2. Sewing tips

• Do not push or pull the fabric to avoid uneven stitch length or needle breakage.
• For a smooth seam, you can apply a stiffening spray before sewing.
• For pintuck sewing (decorative tucks), we recommend using a special pintuck foot that helps maintain an even distance between the tucks.

3. Threading

• You will need two spools of thread. If there is no second spool holder, use a spool placed under the first spool of thread.
• Both threads should be guided through the machine's guides together, but at the needle eyes they must be separated, each through one needle.

Important:

• The automatic needle threading function will not work with the twin needle, so the thread must be threaded manually.

With the universal twin needle, you can easily create decorative parallel seams

Warning: Make sure your sewing machine has a wide enough needle plate and foot opening to safely use a twin needle with a large gap between the needles. Using the wrong needle can damage the sewing machine or cause needle breakage.
