There are marks on the bed of the Baby Lock that can be used as a guide while sewing.
It will depend on what cover or chain stitch needle position you will be using as to what the width will
be.
How To Use The Needle Threader
A
B
1. Hold the needle threader with the arrow mark
on top. Place the thread in the groove of the
needle threader. (fig.A)
2. Push the needle threader against needle and
slide down the groove of the needle to the
eye. Push the thread into the eye of the nee­
dle.
3. With a point of the needle threader or the
tweezers pull the loop of thread from the
back of the needle, under the foot and to the
back left.
Front Cover Seam Guide
For example, the first mark on the left closest to
the needle plate, C­1 needle is 1 inch (2.5cm),
C­2 needle is 7/8 inch (2.25cm), and C­3 nee­
dle is 3/4 inch (2cm).
This guide is great for hemming garments with
cover stitch.
1. Turn under hem and press.
2. Align the raw edge of the hem with the needles
3. Align the folded edge of hem with the correct
guide mark.
Re­threading Looper
If a thread breaks, raise the presser foot and pull the broken thread from under the foot. Open the front
table, depress the machine lock button.. Re­thread the machine above the threading port, leaving an
18inch (40cm) thread tail. Thread the looper as usual and move lock button release lever to the right.
Close the front cover and sew a test sample.
Note: When re­threading your Baby Lock using the "Jet­Air Threading" feature, make sure that the
previous thread that was in the looper (tube) is completely removed. This will eliminate any chance of
the previous thread obstructing the flow of the air when re­threading the machine.
