Specifications & documented facts
Specifications apply to the named model and document edition. Read any setup, fabric or safety requirements with the answer.
No further specifications have been confirmed here. See the compatibility and operating answers above.
Part numbers & accessories
These are manufacturer part references. A drawing or matching number alone does not confirm that a replacement from a seller fits. Check the model-specific listing and restrictions.
Keep the guide’s X52800-120 bobbin reference, Class 15 type wording, 11.5 mm height and included-or-same-type requirement together. Class 15J equivalence and other replacement-part or aftermarket fit have not been confirmed.
Read the bobbin number and all requirements →
Check the exact model and part before ordering. Missing information does not mean a part is incompatible.
Care, setup & service references
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.
Coverage and source-review limits
This Aventura BLMAV reference covers the specified bobbin, its loading direction, fabric-dependent needle choices and foot attachment. Read each answer with its source requirements. A machine-wide needle-system code, standardized shank, hook specification and broader substitutions are not confirmed here.
