•Attach the Upper Looper Converter.
•Following the directions in the Instruction Manual, attach the Deco Guide
over the Lower Looper Tension Slit.
•Thread the Lower Looper with the decorative thread. Thread the first Thread
Guide. The thread will pass through the Deco Guide skipping the tension disk.
•Turn the Stitch Selection Dial to “E”.
•Adjust Stitch Length to 4. 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, remove the thread from
Thread Guide #5 and try again.
•If the tension on the decorative thread is still too tight, remove the thread
from Thread Guide #7 and try again.
•If the tension is still too tight, remove the thread from the first Thread Guide
and try again. You may need to rethread guides #5 and/or #7 to slightly
increase the tension.
•Experiment with the suggested threads, by-passing Thread Guides as needed.
•Press, trim, and mount the samples on the next page.
