OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
from INSPIRA™
Optional presser feet specially prepared for this machine are
available at your dealer. The snap-on type presser foot used on
this machine allows easy removal and replacement.
Elastic Foot 620 08 65-96
The Elastic Foot guides and stretches narrow elastic (6-12 mm,
¼-½ȩ) as you sew it to fabric. It is great for sewing for active
wear, lingerie and other elastic insertion techniques.
Blindhem & Lace Foot 620 08 69-96
The Blindhem Foot is perfect for sewing invisible hems and
for applying lace. The hem is sewn, overcast and trimmed in
one step.
Beading Foot 620 08 66-96
The Beading Foot smoothly guides beads and pearls through a
channel on the foot for easy application on garments or crafts.
Piping Foot 620 08 67-96
The Piping Foot is perfect for inserting packaged piping into
seams and on edges for a tailored Ànish. The trim is sewn
between the two layers of fabric in one step. A groove under
the foot helps guide the piping. You can also create your own
piping for a custom Ànish.
The Piping Foot makes it fast and easy to cover cording with
fabric and to insert piping into seams for a professional look!
Taping Foot 620 08 68-96
The Taping Foot is used to apply seam tapes to seams to
prevent stretching. It is especially good for stabilizing shoulder
seams. With this foot you can reinforce and construct seams in
one step.
Some fabrics have a lot of excess dye which can cause
discoloration on other fabric but also on your overlock machine.
This discoloring may be very difÀcult or impossible to remove.
Fleece and denim fabric, especially red and blue, often contain
a lot of excess dye.
If you suspect that your fabric/ready-to-wear garment contains
a lot of excess dye, always pre-wash it before sewing to avoid
the discoloring.

CONNECT FOOT CONTROL AND POWER SUPPLY
Foot control to use with this machine:
Type 4C-345B22 for USA/Canada
Type 4C-345G22 for Europe
Type 4C-345G25 for UK
Type 4C-345G23 for Australia
Before plugging your machine in, make sure the voltage is the same
as indicated on the plate under the machine. SpeciÀcations vary from
country to country.
1. Connect the foot control/electric power cord to the socket on the
machine.
2. Plug the power cord plug into the electric outlet.
3. Push the power switch to “ON” to turn on the machine.
4. Press the foot control to start sewing. Use the foot control to adjust
the sewing speed. The harder you press, the faster the machine will
sew. To stop the machine from sewing, remove your foot from the
control.
Note: On the side of the foot control is a speed control slide (A) for selecting full
or half speed. If you press the foot control to the bottom, the machine runs at the
maximum speed set by the speed control slide.
5. Push the power switch to “OFF” to turn off the machine.
Note: When the front cover is open the safety switch is activated and prevents the
machine from sewing, even if the foot control is pressed.
POLARIZED PLUG INFORMATION
(For U.S.A. & Canada Only)
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to Àt in a polarized
outlet only way. If the plug does not Àt fully in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not Àt, contact a qualiÀed electrician to install the
proper outlet. Do not modify the plug in any way.

GENERAL THREADING INFORMATION
A color coded diagram is located inside the front cover for quick reference. Always start threading the loopers and then the
needles from right to left.
See the table below for recommendations on what needles and thread to use for different fabric weights.
Tip: Your new machine is threaded to sew a standard overlock. Tie your own threads to these threads and carefully pull them through the machine, to
easily thread your new overlock machine the Àrst time.
Note: If the lower looper should come unthreaded, do the following;
1. Unthread the needle(s)
2. Thread the lower looper
