Note: This is an optional accessory for the 700D.
Following the instructions in your owner's manual, thread the serger for a
wide 2-thread flatlock stitch using decorative thread in the lower looper.
Adjust settings as indicated.
Adjust the stitch length to 4mm. (If needed, you can slowly shorten the
stitch length as you serge to fill in the flatlock stitch).
Serge the sample. If the tension on the decorative thread is too tight,
decrease the looper tension and try again. If the thread tension on the
decorative thread is still too tight, remove the thread from the last thread
guide and try again.
Experiment with the suggested threads, adjusting thread tension and/or
bypassing thread guides as needed.
Press, trim, and mount the samples on the following page.
