Stitch Length

The stitch length (SL) may be adjusted depending on

the fabric weight and fiber content. Stitch length may

be set between 0.5 and 5. Set a shorter stitch length

for lightweight or sheer fabrics. Set a longer stitch

length for heavyweight or bulky fabrics.

NOTE:

Always set the SL dial at 2.5 or higher when sewing a

chainstitch or cover hem.

NOTE:

The stitch length readout for the Cover Hem stitches is

3.0. This is the correct setting for two-three layers of

light to medium weight fabric. Stitch length should be

increased to 3.5 or 4 on heavy fabrics or when sewing

over bulky seams while hemming.

Cutting Width

The cutting width may be adjusted depending on the

fabric weight and the number of fabric layers. Fabric

should lie flat inside the overlock stitch without looping

threads or tunneling.

Looping

The cutting width is set narrower than the stitch width.

Move the lower knife to the right by turning the cutting

width dial up (clockwise).

Tunneling

The cutting width is set wider than the stitch width.

Move the lower knife to the left by turning the cutting

width dial down (counterclockwise).
