Bypassing the Threading Port
Heavy weight threads
can be used through your regu-
lar looper thread paths. Specific techniques may require
that the thread bypass the thread port for the thread pull
to be loosened. Start with the machine threaded with
regular serger thread.
1. Open front cover and raise the presser foot.
2. Just above the threading port, clip the looper thread to
be replaced. Pull the thread out of the upper guides
and remove the cone.
3. Place the specialty thread on the spool pin. Thread
it into the upper guides and clip it a couple of inches
beyond the base plate. (fig. A)
4. With machine lock button released, use the tweezers
to pull the existing looper thread out of tube extend-
ing from the threading mechanism. (fig. B) Leave the
thread in the looper arm.
5. Tie the specialty thread onto the regular thread with an
overhand knot. (fig. C) Pull on the regular thread from
the looper eye until the specialty thread comes through
the looper eye.
6. Place upper looper thread under the foot and to the
left: clip lower looper thread at the base plate.
If the thread is heavy and the overhand knot (step #5)
is too large for the looper tube, follow directions #1 thru
#6 on page 37 to make a thread cradle. Then:
1. Release machine lock button.
2. While holding the loose ends of the thread cradle with
one hand, use the tweezers to pull the cradle loop out
of the tube extending from the threading mechanism
with the other hand.
3. Insert 2 inch (5cm) of your decorative thread into the
cradle loop. Pull on the loose ends of the thread cradle
from the looper eye until the specialty thread comes
through the looper eye. (fig.D)
