130/705 H (household need-
les). However for certain

Needle and thread
The needle size used
depends on the thread. The
needles hould be in
accordance with thread used.
Thread /decorative threads
Sewing and special overlock
threads are manufactured
in a wide variety of types,
weights and combination
fibres. It is worth investing in
good quality threads for
perfect sewing results.
Decorative threads specially
made for overlockers (avai-
lable on cones) are also
becoming widely available.
We recommend following
basic guidelines when using
special threads on your
overlocker:
the BERNINA 2500DCET
when sewing cover and chain
stitch (Positions F and G).
It is important to purchase
system 130/705H needles for
overlocking and
A are bent
B are damaged or blunt
C have hooked points
When sewing, the thread is
fed through the long groove
in the needle. If the needle is
too fine, the thread does not
fit into the groove and
stitches will be skipped. Use
· Purchase threads on cones
or spools which are pro-
duced exclusively for over-
locking.
· When using normal spools,
use the spool caps (in
accessory bag).
· Only use decorative threads
in the loopers. The thread
must move easily and
without resistance through
the thread guides and
looper eyes.
· The thicker the thread, the
longer the stitch length
(3–4).
· The thicker the thread, the
looser the tensions
· Sew slowly when using
decorative threads. Pull the
thread chain gently to the
rear when starting to sew.
· Always test sew decorative
threads before starting to
