Chain Looper for Ribbon Thread
Heavyweight threads and ribbon threads can be used through the chain looper thread path.
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 chain looper thread.
1. Open front cover and front table then raise the presser foot.
2. Just above the threading port, clip the chain looper thread. Pull the thread out of the upper guides
and remove the thread cone.
3. Place the specialty thread on the spool pin. Thread it into the upper guides. For ribbon thread,
DO NOT THREAD it into the tension disks (see illustration below).
4. Bring the specialty thread end through the bypassing thread guide located just left of
the looper threading port. Leave approximately 12 inches (30cm) of thread to be threaded through
the chain looper (see below).
5. With machine threading lever in the serging position, use tweezers to pull the existing looper
thread out of the tube extending from the threading mechanism (see page 36 fig. B). Leave the
thread in the looper arm.
6. Tie the specialty thread (or ribbon thread) onto the regular thread with an overhand knot (see page
36 fig. C). Pull on the regular thread from the looper eye until the specialty thread comes
through the looper eye (see page 36 fig. D).
7. Trim the specialty thread (or ribbon thread) to 4 inches (10cm), lay the thread end in the chain
looper tray, and close the side cover.
Note: If the thread is heavy and the overhand knot (step #6) is too large for the looper tube, follow
directions #1 thru #6 on page 35 to make a thread cradle. Then, engage the threading lever to the
serging position. 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. Insert
2 inches (5cm) of the decorative thread into the cradle loop, and pull on the loose ends of the thread
cradle from the looper eye until the specialty thread comes through the chain looper eye.
Trim the specialty thread to 4 inches and lay in the chain looper tray and close the side cover.
