• Owner's manual pg.___
• Attach the 2-thread adapter to the upper looper.
• Following the instructions in the Owner's manual thread the serger for a 2-thread flatlock stitch using
decorative thread in the lower looper. Set tension dials as directed.
• Adjust the stitch length to 4mm. You can slowly shorten the stitch length as you serge to fill in the
flatlock stitch.
• Sew the sample. If the tension on the decorative thread is too tight, slide the looper tension lever to a
lower number and try again. If after reducing the thread tension with the looper tension dial, the
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 dials and by-passing thread guides
as needed.
