Wave Stitch

Converting from Normal Serging to Wave

The  Wave  Stitch  provides  a  decorative  "wavy"  edging  on  fabric.  (This  is  not  to  be  confused  with  "Lettuce

Edge" on page 33).  The upper looper thread and the lower looper thread gradually appear every 25 stitches

to create a stitch that looks like a "Wave". When using different color specialty threads (see pages 76 & 77)

for the upper or lower loopers, the Wave stitch creates an attractive stitch for edging.

When combining decorative threads for the Wave  stitch, please sew test on a sample of the fabric you will

be sewing on before applying the Wave stitch.

For best results, heavier decorative threads should be limited to the upper or lower looper at one time. Not

both upper looper and lower looper at the same time. Wooly nylon in the corresponding looper and maxilock

thread in the right needle will make a striking combination with the heavy decorative thread. 

1. Move the Wave Selector lever from "O" to "W".

2. Cut the threads from the thread cones and remove from the thread paths.

3. Lock the machine for threading the loopers. (See page 19).

4. Place the right needle thread cone on the OVERLOCK NEEDLE 2 spool pin.

5. Slip  the  right  needle  thread  into  the  telescopic  thread  guide  directly  above  the  thread.    Follow  the  left

overlock needle threading path down to the right overlock needle.

6. Thread the O-2 needle using the needle threader. (See page 24.)

7. Place the upper looper thread cone on the upper looper spool pin.

8. Slip the upper looper thread into the telescopic thread guide directly above the thread.  Follow the top

threading  path  for  the  right  overlock  needle  thread,  down  the  front  threading  path,  to  the  left  of  the

chrome thread guide, and directly to the "U" jet air threading port for the upper looper.   Set the Looper

Threader Selector on "U".  Thread the upper looper.  (See page 20.)

9. Place the needle thread and upper looper thread under the presser foot and to the back.

10. Place the lower looper thread cone on the lower looper spool pin.

11. Slip  the  lower  looper  thread  into  the  telescopic  thread  guide  directly  above  the  thread,  then  slip  the

thread  into  the  chain  looper  telescopic  thread  guide  to  avoid  the  thread  getting  tangled  while  sewing.

Take  the thread through the standard lower looper threading path to  the "L" jet air threading 

port for the

lower looper.  Set the Looper Threader Selector on "L".  Thread the lower looper.  (See page 20.)

12. Unlock the machine.

13. Set Stitch Selector for Wave Stitch or Rolled Wave Stitch.  (See page 41 to 43 for correct settings.)

14. Set Stitch Length and Stitch Width following the illustration on page 41, 42 or 43.
