Before choosing a part
Start with these documented details. Read the requirements with each answer before choosing a needle, bobbin or foot.
Not yet confirmed here: Manufacturer accessory group, Presser-foot shank type, Foot attachment, Foot holder / mount, Foot interface / generation, Bobbin type / class, Bobbin material, Bobbin diameter, Bobbin height, Hook type, Needle system / designation, Needle sizes by fabric and use, Maximum stitch / zigzag width, Feed system, Bobbin loading direction. What is still to confirm →
Other names, regional versions and related models have not been confirmed here. A shared manual, product line or accessory group does not identify the machine's family.
Use only home-use sewing machine needles, straight and sharp, and never thread #20 or lower. The table on PDF page 18 (printed page 17) matches them to the fabric. The only system code printed, 130/705H, is in the ball point substitute; no general system is inferred.
Documents and page references →Turn the machine off, raise the presser foot lever and raise the needle until the handwheel mark points up. Use the steps on PDF pages 15–17 (printed pages 14–16), then draw up the lower thread as on PDF page 17 (printed page 16).
Documents and page references →Use only the supplied bobbin or bobbins of the same type, with the codes as printed. The manual states no bobbin class, material or third-party substitute, and none is established; not stated does not mean incompatible.
Documents and page references →Turn the machine off and raise the lever and the needle first; the general safety instructions also say to unplug it for adjustments. Use the steps on PDF pages 9–10 (printed pages 8–9). No shank class or third-party foot fit is stated, which does not mean incompatible.
Documents and page references →Raise the needle (handwheel mark up) before turning the pattern selection dial. Values are the preset ones, with inch fractions as printed; the manual describes no separate length or width control. Sew a trial piece first.
Documents and page references →Codes are printed literally from the accessory table on PDF page 5 (printed page 4). The manual says included accessories vary by machine model and that an optional item may be included with some models; no retailer fit is claimed.
Documents and page references →Turn the machine off first; the general safety instructions also say to unplug it for adjustments. Use the steps on PDF pages 8–9 (printed pages 7–8), then check that the needle touches the stopper and the clamp screw is securely tightened, without excessive force.
Documents and page references →Only optional twin needle X57521-021, with the two stitches the manual names and zigzag foot “J”. After selecting the stitch, turn the handwheel slowly toward you and check that the needle does not touch the foot. Threading is on PDF page 22 (printed page 21).
Documents and page references →Check the threading before turning the dial, because incorrect bobbin or upper threading can cause the same loops. Sew a test sample on scrap fabric first. The manual describes no bobbin-case tension adjustment.
Documents and page references →Pull the thread taut, hold its end straight up and trim the excess above the bobbin before winding on. Use the steps on PDF pages 12–13 (printed pages 11–12), then slide the winder shaft back to the left: the machine does not sew while it is pushed right.
Documents and page references →Turn the machine off first. Use the steps on PDF pages 14–15 (printed pages 13–14), then check that the thread passes through the bobbin case’s tension spring, unrolls in the direction of the arrow and comes out toward the rear.
Documents and page references →Contact the nearest authorized service center for a new case, and never use a scratched one. When refitting it after cleaning, align the ▲ mark with the ● mark (PDF page 40, printed page 39). No other bobbin case is named, and none is listed as included.
Documents and page references →Turn the machine off and raise the needle and foot first. Use the steps on PDF pages 34–35 (printed pages 33–34), tighten the screw securely and turn the handwheel toward you to check that the needle does not touch the foot. Use only the stitches the manual lists for each foot.
Documents and page references →Turn the machine off before attaching buttonhole foot “A”, and practise on scrap fabric first. Use the steps on PDF pages 28–29 (printed pages 27–28); the fine-adjustment screw corrects uneven sides. Keep your fingers out of the seam ripper’s path.
Documents and page references →Choose the model for your voltage area as printed. The part code differs by country or region, so ask your dealer or an authorized service center; the accessory table gives no code. Keep the foot controller clear of cloth and dust.
Documents and page references →Do not sew fabric more than 6 mm (15/64 inch) thick or push it with force, or the needle may bend or break. Match the needle and thread to the fabric with the table on PDF page 18 (printed page 17).
Documents and page references →Turn the machine off and unplug it before cleaning the race, using the steps on PDF pages 39–40 (printed pages 38–39). Afterwards check that the ▲ and ● marks are aligned and the needle plate is secure. Don’t oil the bobbin case.

Sewing machine needles for home use only; Brother warns that other needles may bend or break and cause injury. The manual's fabric, thread and needle table (PDF 18 / printed 17) gives these needle sizes: thin fabrics 65/9 to 75/11; medium weight fabrics 75/11 to 90/14; thick fabrics 90/14 to 100/16 (100/16 for denim sewn with 30 cotton thread); stretch fabrics a ball point needle 75/11 to 90/14 (gold colored); easily frayed fabrics 65/9 to 90/14; top-stitching 100/16 with 30 thread or 75/11 to 90/14 with 50 to 60 thread. Use the ball point needle on stretch fabrics or where skipped stitches easily occur: the factory recommended needle is "HG-4BR" (Organ), and Schmetz "JERSEY BALL POINT" 130/705H SUK 90/14 needles may be used as a substitute. With transparent nylon thread use a 90/14 to 100/16 needle, whatever the fabric or thread.
Turn the machine off first; Brother warns that injuries may occur if the foot controller is pressed by accident and the machine starts sewing. Check that the new needle is straight: put its flat side on a flat surface and check it from the top and the sides. Place fabric or paper under the presser foot so the needle cannot fall into the hole in the needle plate, then follow the manual's steps on PDF 8-9 / printed 7-8, using the oval screwdriver. The flat side of the needle faces the back of the machine.
Yes, with the optional twin needle made for this machine: part code X57521-021, 2.0/75 with a 2 mm width. Brother warns that other needles could break and damage the machine. It is installed the same way as a single needle, flat side toward the back (PDF 8-9 / printed 7-8). Use it only with the Straight Stitch (Center Needle Position) and the Zigzag Stitch (1.5 mm (1/16 inch) width), with zigzag foot "J" attached; otherwise the needle may break or the machine may be damaged.
Only the bobbin that comes with the machine or bobbins of the same type, printed as "part code: SA156, SFB: XA5539-151". The included-accessory table lists the bobbin ("One is on machine") as SA156 under Americas and SFB: XA5539-151 under Others. The manual's actual-size drawing shows this model's bobbin 11.5 mm (7/16 inch) high, beside a different "Other models" bobbin.
Yes, on the machine's bobbin winder: follow the manual's winding steps on PDF 12-13 / printed 11-12. Winding runs with the machine turned on and the foot controller pressed; the needle bar does not move while the bobbin winder shaft is slid to the right.
Turn the machine off first; Brother warns you could be injured if the foot controller is stepped on and the machine starts. Use a properly wound bobbin, then follow the manual's lower-threading steps on PDF 14-15 / printed 13-14, setting the bobbin so the thread unrolls in the direction shown by the arrow.
For a new bobbin case, Brother gives part code XE9326-001 and says to contact your nearest authorized service center. Never use a scratched bobbin case: the upper thread may become tangled, the needle may break, or sewing performance may suffer.
Snap-on feet: each foot's bar snaps into the slot on the shank of the presser foot holder, and the black button at the back of the holder releases the foot. Turn the machine off, raise the presser foot lever and raise the needle (handwheel mark up) first, then follow the manual's steps on PDF 9-10 / printed 8-9. The manual's check: with the foot in the correct place, the bar snaps in when the presser foot lever is lowered. Fit it in the orientation shown, or the needle may strike the foot.
Both are optional and replace the presser foot holder. Turn the machine off, raise the needle and presser foot, and loosen the presser foot screw to remove the holder (PDF 34 / printed 33). The walking foot hooks its connecting fork onto the needle clamp screw (steps on PDF 34 / printed 33); the quilting foot goes on with its part A above the needle clamp screw (steps on PDF 35 / printed 34). Tighten the presser foot screw securely with the oval screwdriver, then turn the handwheel toward you and check that the needle does not touch the foot.
Specifications apply to the named model and document edition. Read any setup, fabric or safety requirements with the answer.
The manual's accessory table lists 9 included and 8 optional items, with codes as printed (Americas / Others where the columns differ). Included: 1. Zigzag foot "J" (on machine): XC4901-021; 2. Buttonhole foot "A": X59369-321; 3. Zipper foot "I": XE9369-001; 4. Darning Plate: XC6063-021; 5. Button sewing foot "M": XE2137-001; 6. Bobbin (One is on machine): Americas SA156; Others SFB: XA5539-151; 7. Needle set (90/14 needle): 3-piece set: XE5328-001; 2-piece set: XE7064-001; 8. Oval screwdriver: XE5241-001; 9. Foot controller: "See page 5" (no code in the table). Optional, purchased separately: 1. Extra spool pin: XE2241-001; 2. Twin needle (2.0/75 needle): X57521-021; 3. Walking Foot: Americas SA107; Others F034N: XC2165-002; 4. Quilting Foot: Americas SA129; Others F005N: XC1948-002; 5. 1/4-inch Quilting Foot: Americas SA125; Others F001N: XC1944-052; 6. Narrow Hemmer Foot: Americas SA127; Others F003N: XC1945-002; 7. Blind Stitch Foot: Americas SA134; Others F018N: XC1976-052; 8. Quilting guide: Americas SA132; Others F016N: XC2215-002.
Model KD-1902 for the 110/120V area or Model KD-2902 for the 220/240V area. Brother says the foot controller part code differs by country or region, so ask your dealer or the nearest authorized service center. A note for the U.S.A. only says foot controller Model KD-1902 can be used on the machine with product code 885-X11, the code printed on the machine rating plate.
No oiling: Brother says the machine must not be oiled by the user, because it was made with the necessary amount of oil applied, so periodic oiling is unnecessary. If the handwheel becomes difficult to turn or the machine makes an unusual noise, stop using it and contact your authorized dealer or the nearest authorized service center. To clean the race, turn the machine off and unplug it first (risk of electric shock or injury), then follow the manual's steps on PDF 39-40 / printed 38-39 to remove dust from the race and its surrounding area. Do not oil the bobbin case.
Brother cautions that fabric more than 6 mm (15/64 inch) thick, or fabric pushed with too much force, may bend or break the needle. If the fabric does not fit easily under the presser foot, raise the presser foot lever even higher to bring the foot to its highest position.
The manual lists 17 stitches, chosen with the pattern selection dial, which turns in either direction. Pattern number, stitch, preset length / preset width in mm (inch), as printed: 1. 4-step automatic buttonhole, 0.5 (1/32) / 5 (3/16); 2. straight stitch (center needle position), 1.6 (1/16) / no preset width (printed "—"); 3. straight stitch (center needle position), 1.8 (1/16) / no preset width (printed "—"); 4. straight stitch (center needle position), 2 (1/16) / no preset width (printed "—"); 5. straight stitch (center needle position), 2.5 (3/32) / no preset width (printed "—"); 6. straight stitch (center needle position), 4 (3/16) / no preset width (printed "—"); 7. straight stitch (left needle position), 2.5 (3/32) / no preset width (printed "—"); 8. zigzag stitch, 0.7 (1/32) / 1.5 (1/16); 9. zigzag stitch, 1.5 (1/16) / 3 (1/8); 10. zigzag stitch, 2 (1/16) / 5 (3/16); 11. zigzag (satin) stitch, 0.5 (1/32) / 5 (3/16); 12. shell tuck stitch, 2 (1/16) / 5 (3/16); 13. elastic stitch, 1 (1/16) / 5 (3/16); 14. stretch blind hem stitch, 2 (1/16) / 5 (3/16); 15. scallop stitch, 0.5 (1/32) / 5 (3/16); 16. double action stitch, 1.2 (1/16) / 5 (3/16); 17. bridging stitch, 1.2 (1/16) / 5 (3/16).
A 4-step automatic buttonhole (pattern 1, preset length 0.5 mm (1/32 inch), width 5 mm (3/16 inch)) with buttonhole foot "A". Turn the machine off before attaching the foot, then follow the manual's steps on PDF 28-29 / printed 27-28: the front bar tack, left side, back bar tack and right side are sewn at pattern selection dial positions "a", "b", "c" and "d".
Turn the machine off and raise the presser foot lever, then raise the needle by turning the handwheel toward you (counterclockwise) until the mark on the wheel points up; the manual says the machine cannot be threaded if the needle is not correctly raised. Then follow the manual's upper-threading steps on PDF 15-17 / printed 14-16.
Upper thread tension is set with the upper tension-control dial. Loops on the surface of the fabric mean the upper tension is too tight: turn the dial to a lower number. Loops on the back of the fabric mean it is too loose: turn the dial to a higher number. Tension may need adjusting when you change fabric or thread; sew a test sample on scrap fabric first.
Use the full source procedure and its safety precautions. A short referenced answer is not a substitute for service documentation or qualified electrical/mechanical repair.
Service-manual availability and service-only procedures remain unestablished unless separately cataloged and reviewed.
Answers use this model’s own instruction manual with its stated safety conditions. Where the manual contradicts itself or gives no value, no answer is given. No hands-on testing or replacement-part fit is claimed.
An unanswered question does not mean a part is incompatible. We have not confirmed enough information to recommend it.
Other names, regional versions, production history, further specifications and documents are not fully covered here. Their absence is not a “none exist” finding.
