its lowest position.

Reactivate the Upper Cutter
• Turn on the upper cutter by switching the upper cutter
switch to cutting position (B).
Note: Always have the upper cutter in the cutting position when
sewing, because this machine must trim off any excess fabric to
form the stitch over the fabric edge. An exception to this is when
sewing decorative flatlock seams. Then the upper cutter needs to
be turned off.

2-thread overlock stitches are sewn using one needle thread
and the lower looper thread. Before sewing, the two-thread
converter must be attached to the upper looper, so the machine
will sew with only two threads.
1. Open the front cover.
2. Bring the upper looper to its lowest position by turning the
hand wheel toward you.
3. Insert the tip of the converter (A) into the hole of the upper
looper (B).
4. Push the converter (C) down into the slot of the upper
looper.

Remove the converter by tilting it toward you (D).
