• Thread the serger for a 4-thread overlock stitch.
• Set all thread tension levers between 3-5 (normal).
• Locate the tape guide on the presser foot.
• Using the small screwdriver from the accessory pouch,
loosen the fixing screw and slide the tape guide all the
way to the left. Snug the screw.
• Slip the twill tape or ribbon into the slot on the presser foot.
• Lower the presser foot and lower the needles into the tape
or ribbon.
• Loosen the fixing screw and adjust the tape guide to the
width of the tape or ribbon. Retighten the screw.
• Seam the jersey together along the 6” side, catching the
tape or ribbon.
