CHAINSTITCH SEWING
The Chainstitch is sewn with two threads, one needle and one
looper. Normally, the machine trims the fabric edge while
the seam is being sewn. However, a Chainstitch seam can be
placed at a desired distance from edge of fabric by putting
the upper cutter in position C, disengaging the upper looper
and installing Coverstitch table C.

1. Thread the chain into a large eyed, hand sewing needle.

Sewing with heavy decorative threads in the loopers
Heavy decorative threads need less thread tension than
regular threads to give the best sewing result. When threading
a heavy decorative thread, place the thread through the hole
in the top cover looper thread guide and let it pass above
the guide as illustrated below. Then continue threading as
described in the threading section.
