Needle System UY 118 For Flat Seamers
The Special Features The production of flawless flat and closing seams at extreme sewing speeds pushes needles to the limits of their capability. The quality demands made on these needles are accordingly high. A frequently occurring problem are skipped stitches due to imprecise needle alignment and insufficient needle straightness.
The Advantages To counter this effect, the shank and blade geometry of the UY 118 needle system is designed to guarantee a perfect alignment in the machine. This is also reflected in low penetration forces, which bring about a reduction of stitch damage. Additional benefits such as reduced needle and thread breakage help improve process reliability and quality of seams.

JUKI DDL-8700 FAQs
What kind of needles do you use in the DDL-8700?
The needles with your JUKI are the Organ DBx1, available on our website. This machine uses size 16×257, size 8 through 20 or 16×97. The 8700 can also use standard needles, sizes 9 through 21, universal or fabric-specific needles such as knit.
Where does the machine oil go?
A pan directly underneath the machine supplies oil to the machine with a cotton wick. Lift the machine up and over to access the oil tank while on the table. You must keep the machine’s oil level consistently at the «high» mark, either by adding more oil or draining it and refilling it as needed. If the oil pump can’t get the oil into the machine, it can cause serious problems later.
What kind of oil does this machine require?
You need a specific type, like motor oil in your car, to keep this machine running. The DDL-8700 requires JUKI New Defrix Oil No.1, equivalent to ISO VG7.
