Your Baby Lock Celebrate serger is set up with 75/11 machine needles, which are suitable for most
medium and lightweight fabrics. For heavyweight fabrics, change to a size 90/14 needle. The
needle's semi-ball point design is suitable for knits and wovens. Some manufacturers' needles
may produce better quality stitches with your Baby Lock than others. For best results, use Organ
or Schmetz brand needles - system HAx1SP/CR, and replace them approximately every third
project. (see page 43)
All types of thread may be used on your Baby Lock, but 100% long-staple polyester thread,
crosswound on a cone, consistently provides the best stitch performance. Because the threads
must pass through several thread guides at high speeds, they must be of uniform thickness and
high strength with a minimum amount of linting.
Good-quality cotton or cotton-covered polyester threads sew well, though they produce more lint,
creating the need to clean the machine more frequently. They work well for overedging and
seaming, but they may be too weak or too fuzzy for the rolled edge. Poor grades of these threads
can result in frequent fraying, breaking and unbalanced stitches.
Threads of other fiber contents and weights may be used, depending on their strength and
thickness. Testing will help you determine how easily they can pass through the thread guides,
thread slots, needles and loopers. For more information. (see page 41-42)
Important Note:
For maximum performance of the Baby Lock Celebrate, it is recommended to
use 100% polyester, long-fiber thread. Recommended brands are Maxi-Lock and Metrosene.
This thread also performs best when used with various decorative threads for serging specialty
techniques.
There are optional snap-on specialty feet available for the Celebrate. The optional accessories
are available at your Baby Lock retailer.
