I wouldn't thought that it was left homing with the needle position at the top of the pillar. I'm basing it on the the needle plate for straight stitching - as the single hole is on the left side nearest the left feed dogs. It looks like this machine has the straight stitch plate on it. I guess technically it isn't left homing but with the straight stitch plate on - the needle better be in the left position.
Left homing is where the machine set for straight stitching the needle enters the left side of the zig-zag plate hole.
With cleaners, you do NOT want to have abrasives in them.
