4-Thread Overlock Seam
Thread the serger for a 4-thread overlock stitch. Adjust settings as
indicated. Fine tune as needed.
Locate the seam guide markings on the knife guard. Measurements
shown are distances from the right needle. When using the left needle,
add 1/8” to measurements. Tip: Use a permanent marker to highlight
the raised markings; this is particularly useful for those with “mature”
eyesight.
Fold fabric in half to 2½” x 6”.
Align the fold of the fabric with the ½” mark on the knife guard (the left
needle is being used). Serge the seam, cutting off exactly
3
/8”.
Trim and mount the sample.
