• Owner's manual pg.___
• Thread the serger for a 4-thread overlock stitch.
• Set all thread tension levers between 3-5 (normal).
• Adjust stitch length to 4mm.
• Turn the presser foot pressure knob clockwise to increase the pressure.
• Remove the presser foot – Owner's manual page___.
• Following the directions in the Owner's manual for Elasticator, attach the presser foot.
• Locate and raise the roller guide in the front of the presser foot.
• Turn the handwheel to lower the needles. (This also lowers the feed dog.)
• Raise the presser foot and insert the elastic through the slot and under the presser foot until it touches
the needles.
• Lower the presser foot and serge a few stitches to catch and straighten the elastic along the right edge
of the slot. Turn the handwheel to lower the needles.
• Lower the roller guide.
• Using the small screwdriver, adjust the guide plate on the presser foot to the width of the elastic.
• Locate the pressure adjustment set screw (on the top of the roller guide) and turn the screw
counterclockwise to completely loosen the pressure on the roller.
• Place the fabric under the presser foot and begin serging.
• Slowly tighten the pressure adjustment set screw to increase the pressure on the roller and stretch the
elastic. Note: Do not over tighten the screw. Excessive pressure on the elastic will bind the fabric.
• Serge the elastic onto the fabric letting the presser foot stretch the elastic for you.
• Trim and mount the sample.
