• Trim the thread tail.
• Continue serging around the square crossing over the previous stitching.
• Use a Seam Sealant on the untrimmed thread tails (or use a Tapestry Needle

• Thread the serger for a 3-thread Overlock stitch using the Left Needle.
• Turn the Stitch Selection Dial to “A” on the Stitch Display Panel.
• Before serging, trim away the seam allowance (¼”) for about 2” on each corner.
• Beginning at one trimmed corner, serge (cutting ¼” as you sew) to the end
of the fabric. Take 1 stitch off the end of the fabric.
• Locate the Stitch Selection Lever/Roll Hem on the Stitch Plate and pull
the white lever towards you. This will free the thread from the Stitch Finger.
• Lift the Presser Foot and carefully pivot the fabric 90 ° clockwise.
• Return the Stitch Selection Lever/Rolled Hem to normal (away from you).
• Place the Needles one stitch into the fabric and lower the Presser Foot.
• Continue serging until you are 1 stitch off the next corner.
• Repeat the turning procedure and continue serging.
• Mount the sample on the next page.
