Serging with Fabric
Clearing the Stitch Width Fingers

As you sew, you will discover that maneuvering the fabric is different
from conventional sewing because the threads form around the stitch
fingers (fig. A).
To clear the stitch fingers, simply raise the presser foot, which
releases all threads. Turn the handwheel forward to raise the
needle(s). Then pull the threads gently from behind the foot (fig. B).
The stitches are now released from the fingers (fig. C).
With the needle and looper threads under the foot and to the back,
lower the presser foot. While holding the threads in your left hand,
press down on the foot control gently to begin a thread chain before
serging fabric (fig.A).
You can leave the presser foot down for most serging applications.
Just place the fabric at the toe of the presser foot. As you step on
the foot control, the feed dogs will begin moving the fabric toward
the needle (fig.B). You need to raise and lower the foot only when
working with thick, spongy or lofty fabrics, or when precise posi-
tioning is required.
Be careful not to push or pull the fabric. The Enlighten will feed it
evenly without help. At the end of a seam, just sew off the fabric
edge and continue serging to create 5" - 6" thread chain. Cut the
thread chain with the thread cutter on the left side cover (fig.C).
