The service manual has a lot of timing settings etc. this thing is way out of my wheel house. My local shop is a Bernina dealer he and the shop are amazing.

I think you are right that the 211G takes 135x17 needles.
According to Thread Exchange, the T70 would take an 18 needle.
What are you wanting to use the machine to make?
