TESTING STITCH OVERLOCK STITCHES After threading is completed, use a scrap of fabric that you plan to sew and test sew in the following order: 1. Gently pulling all the threads to the left, lower the presser foot. Rotate the hand wheel toward you a few times to see if the lock stitches are properly formed. 2. Start the machine at low speed and feed in test fabric under the presser foot by slightly pushing it forward. (This can be done with the presser foot down on most fabrics except bulky materials.) Guide the fabric gently as machine automatically feeds the material. 3. Check thread tensions by test sewing on a scarp of fabric. 4. At the fabric end, continue running the machine at a low speed, gently pulling the fabric towards the back until about 3" (5 to 6 cm) of extra stitches are produced off the fabric. Cut thread by pushing thread cutter lever down, or use scissors. 30 Fig. 1 Fig. 2 Fig. 3

TESTING STITCH OVERLOCK STITCHES
After threading is completed, use a scrap of fabric that you plan to sew and test sew in the following
order:
1. Gently pulling all the threads to the left, lower the presser foot. Rotate the hand wheel toward
you a few times to see if the lock stitches are properly formed.
2. Start the machine at low speed and feed in test fabric under the presser foot by slightly pushing
it forward. (This can be done with the presser foot down on most fabrics except bulky materials.)
Guide the fabric gently as machine automatically feeds the material.
3. Check thread tensions by test sewing on a scarp of fabric.
4. At the fabric end, continue running the machine at a low speed, gently pulling the fabric towards
the back until about 3” (5 to 6 cm) of extra stitches are produced off the fabric.
Cut thread by pushing thread cutter lever down, or use scissors.
