Accessories For Decorative Threads
There are many decorative threads available for
overlock use. Make sure you choose threads and
yarns that smoothly pass through the looper or
needle. Never use a thread that breaks easily if you
pull on it. Do not use fuzzy (ex. mohair yarn) or
uneven threads that can catch on thread guides.
Tension Release Clips
Place the tension release clip into any thread guide
that is using a decorative thread.
Snap-on Thread Guide
Decorative threads may tangle. Snap the thread
guide onto the thread guide pole and pass the upper
looper thread as shown.
IMPORTANT:
When using decorative threads, sew at a slower and
consistent speed to prevent uneven stitches.
Stitch Reference Display
The stitch reference display shows recommended
tensions and other machine settings for the 12
stitches.
Turn the stitch reference dial to set the number of the
desired stitch at the upper row in the display window.
