Need to change needles on your overlocker? Follow these simple steps:
1. **Safety First**: Turn off and unplug your overlocker to prevent accidents during maintenance.
2. **Raise the Needle Bar**: Use the lever or knob on your machine to raise the needle bar to its highest position, facilitating easy needle removal and replacement.
3. **Loosen Set Screws**: Utilize the Rimoldi hex screwdriver to loosen the needle set screws. Rotate counterclockwise to loosen without removing entirely.
4. **Remove Old Needles**: Carefully extract the old needles once the set screws are loose, being mindful of their sharp points.
5. **Insert New Needles**: Insert new needles into the holders, ensuring they're pushed up as far as they can go.
6. **Tighten Set Screws**: With the hex screwdriver, securely tighten the needle set screws by rotating clockwise, ensuring they're snug but not overly tightened to prevent damage.
7. **Lower Needle Bar**: Return the needle bar to its regular position by reversing the steps used to raise it, completing the process seamlessly.
