CORDED OVERLOCK
Corded overlock can be used to strengthen shoulder, sleeve or side seams when joining or making
up knitted garments. As a decorative feature you can use knitting yarn of contrasting colours to
further enhance your garment. Your machine is equipped with a presser foot which has been
designed to feed your cord or yarn to the left of the safety stitch or to the right. Follow instructions
as follows:
1. Snap the detachable cord guide, in your accessory set onto the thread guide pole (Fig. 1).
2. Place a ¢filler¢ cord, such as a crochet cotton, gimp, wool, knitting yarn, or shirring elastic at the
rear of the machine spool pin. Pass the cord through the cord guides (1) and (2) and then
through the left needle thread guide (3). See Fig. 1.
3. Insert the cord through either the front or rear hole (according to the operation, see diagrams
Figures 2 and 3), in the presser foot and pass it under and to the rear of the foot.
4. Place the material to be sewn as normal. Start at slow speed observing if cord is feeding
correctly and increase speed as needed.
FOR JOINING SHOULDERS OR SLEEVES, pass the cord through the front hole, ensuring that it is
fixed between the left and right needle threads as it is guided through the front hole. (Fig. 2).
FOR JOINING SIDE SEAMS, pass the cord through the rear hole, ensuring it is positioned to the
right needle thread. (Fig. 3).
FOR DECORATIVE EFFECTS, you may pass contrasting colours either through the front or rear
hole or if you desire, pass cord or yarn through each hole.
FOR MAKING WAVED HEM WITH GUT (Fig. 4), pass the gut through the rear hole and start
ROLL HEMMING (See page 34).
This is used for the hem of skirt, etc.
