Set up the machine for 2-thread flatlock-wide but the needle
threading path is different for this technique.
1. Insert a size 90 top stitch needle in left overlock needle
position.
2. Engage the threading lever in the threading position.
3. Swing the subsidiary looper into place on the upper
looper. (Refer to step 3 on page 33)
4. Thread serger sewing thread in the lower looper.
5. Place a heavy decorative thread that will be used in the left
needle on spool pin and thread the needle thread through
upper looper thread path.
6. Engage the threading lever to the serging position, pull the
thread out of the upper looper tube and continue to thread
the needle as illustrated.
7. Place water-soluble stabilizer on top of the fabric, along the
edge.
8. Stitch along the edge of the fabric. (Fig. A)
9. When finished stitching, pull the water-soluble stabilizer to
the right of the fabric. (fig. B) This will pull the stitching to
the edge and will look like a blanket stitch. (fig. C)
For a blanket decorative stitch, follow the suggested settings
and threading illustration below.
