Accessories in the looper cover
Here you’ll find the most commonly
used accessories, neatly arranged
and ready-to-hand.
Threading (Lay-in) System
The BERNINA lay-in system lets you
thread quickly and directly at all
times. Thanks to the automatic
lower-looper threading system, it’s
also a cinch to thread the lower-
looper.
Needle-threader
The practical manual
threading tool for quick
threading.
Swing-out upper-knife arm
The upper-knife arm can be quick-released
effortlessly at the press of a button to
provide more room. This is particularly
advantageous when, for example, you’re
working in coverstitch mode, or do not
wish to trim the fabric edge.
Safety switch
The safety switch is acti-
vated as soon as you open
the looper cover or the
fabric support plate, thus
preventing the accidental
operation of the serger
during e.g. the threading
process.
Patented swing-out presser foot
Simply swing the foot out to the side to
give yourself plenty of space for easy
threading and hassle-free needle change.
Front foot lift system
The front foot lift gives an additional
lift to the front of the presser foot, making
it possible to accurately position multiple
layers of fabric and bulky projects such as
hand-knitted jumpers underneath it.
LCD screen
The clear display tells you both the
personal and default basic settings of
the stitch variants. You can also read the
recommended basic thread tension here,
as well as save personal settings.
mtc knob
Thanks to the patented mtc
thread control, it‘s finally
possible to directly set the
over-edge thread length and
achieve the perfect seam at
the twist of a knob!
Professional knife drive from above
Provides the greatest, most robust
cutting force. Even thick fabrics won’t
deflect the upper knife – so all fabric
edges can be trimmed safely and pro-
fessionally.
Handwheel position indicator
Easy, ergonomic operation:
With the aid of the vision panel and the
red position indicators, you’ll find the
ideal threading position for the needles
and the lower looper straightaway.
Elasticator foot
The elasticator foot guides
and stretches the elastic. Ideal
for lingerie, bath- and sports-
wear, home textiles, etc.
Coverstitch foot
This special foot can be fitted
for absolutely flawless cover-
stitch seams. Suitable for seams,
hems, bindings and decorative
applications.
Blindstitch foot
The blindstitch foot features
an adjustable lateral guide plate
which takes the hard work out
of sewing blind hems. Suitable
for blindhemming, flatlocking
and heirloom techniques.
Rolled-hem lever
Simply flick the rolled-hem lever to switch
effortlessly to a rolled-hem stitch and back
again, with no need to change the stitch
plate or presser foot.
Differential feed
Stepless differential feed ensures
wave-free seams in knits, and prevents
puckering in fine fabrics – at the same
time allowing deliberate gathering.
