This sewing machine can sew five different stitches by following the simple steps below: Use all four threads and two needles for producing four-thread overlock stitches. NOTE: You can use the optional accessory foot for even more varieties of stitches. Use three threads and the left needle, producing 5 mm (3/16 inch) seams. Thread the machine and pull all threads out about 15 cm (6 inches) behind the presser foot. Place a piece of scrap material under the presser foot for test sewing. nOTE: Always lift the presser foot before placing the fabric under it. You cannot start sewing by just running the fabric under the foot without lifting the presser foot. Holding all threads with your left hand, turn the hand wheel slowly a few times toward you, and check to see that the threads entwine themselves before using the foot controller to sew. Lift the presser foot and place the material well underneath the presser foot before starting to sew. If the stitch is not uniform, recheck that the threading has been done properly and in sequence. After test-sewing, continue to depress the foot controller slightly and chain off 10cm (4 inches).
