How easy will it be to thread your new overlocker? VERY – as long as…
Overlocker sewing machines have a number of key advantages, particularly when it comes to stopping the edges of cut fabric from fraying. They used to be professional level pieces of equipment, but these days overlockers are increasingly finding their way into the home market.
An overlocker by no means replaces a “traditional” sewing machine, but it does excel at joining two layers of cloth and trimming the edge of the fabric to stop fraying.
“Overlockers are SO difficult to thread – aren’t they?”
The short answer – in this particular case, you’ll be glad to hear is “No” – just check out the video. Enjoy!
Jaguar overlocker used in the video
You may like to know which wonderful machine we used in the making of this video – it’s the Jaguar 487 overlocker, which of course features the almost legendary Easy-threading system.
The Jaguar 487 overlocker is superbly engineered 2, 3 or 4 thread machine with differential feed and is a favourite among machinists demanding a range of easily produced professional looking finishes. The front of the machine opens for cleaning and thread area access.
No special tools or tweezers are needed to thread the Jaguar.
This overlocker has plenty of useful features such as the adjustable stitch width and length and foot pressure regulator. It’s very robust and powerful with the differential feed which can manage difficult fabrics; it can also reach maximum speeds of up to 1300 stitches per minute.
For professional finishes, powerful overlocking and simplicity, this may just be the overlocker for you.
