As a rule, people who have bought Chinese overlocks are very happy with their purchase when they come home. But they completely forget what they showed at the place of sale. The long process of learning how to thread the overlock begins. There is a diagram, but it usually does not understand something. How to refuel the overlock?
Instructions
Step 1
Start threading from the left looper. Guide the thread into the hole in the protective cover through the thread guide (2) and then into the hole (4) of the left slide cover (3).
Step 2
Pass the thread through hole (4) and into hole (5) of the thread tension plate. The thread is then wrapped around the tension control mechanism and passed through a channel that leads to the looper mechanism.
Step 3
Rotate the pulley until the right looper rises above the throat plate. The looper mechanism should be positioned as shown.
Step 4
Draw the thread behind the lever holding the right looper and place it over the hook (7).
Step 5
Rotate the pulley until the left looper is in the extreme position. Pass the thread through the looper hole (8). Then rotate the pulley until the right looper rises above the throat plate and feeds the left looper thread up, where it can be threaded under the foot. If the thread is incorrectly threaded, it will constantly break.
Step 6
Start threading the right looper. Guide the thread through the hole in the needle thread tension plate. Next, pass the thread through the hole in the upper knife stop plate and into the right looper thread tension mechanism.
Step 7
Rotate the pulley until the right looper is in the up position. Pass the thread through the hole from the middle of the thread take-up under the hooks where the thread is guided.
Step 8
One last thing: thread the needle thread. Pass the thread through the tension adjustment mechanism, passing through the hole in the plate, bending around the axis of the adjuster.
Step 9
Then pass the thread under the hook and thread through the eye of the needle.
Step 10
The correctness of the threading process is checked with a seam. If the threads break, the threads are not threaded correctly and, therefore, the loop is not correctly looped.
