Brother XM3700 Broken Needle Replacement

crwdns2915892:0crwdne2915892:0

Most sewing machine issues occur because of the needle. Regularly changing out broken or dull needles is an important aspect of maintaining a sewing machine. The needle is responsible for the quality of stitching, but can also affect the how the sewing machine functions. A broken or dull needle not only damages the fabric, but can damage the bobbin case below, and bunch up both the top and bottom threads. Properly inserting a new needle, as well as assessing which needle is required for your project can save you from a variety of sewing machine headaches.
