7-Thread Wave Stitch
7-Thread Wave Stitch is a combined stitch of 3-Thread Wave and 4-Thread Triple Cover Stitch.
This stitch looks gorgeous with decorative threads appearing on wave stitch and triple cover
stitch.
For the 7-Thread Wave Stitch:
1. Use standard cutting blade cover.
2. Thread upper looper according to either 3-thread wave stitch or 3-thread rolled wave stitch.
(see page 41 or 42) Thread the lower looper in the standard lower looper thread path
(illustration below).
3. Thread chain looper.
4. Thread C-1, C-2, C-3, and O-2 (overlock) needle positions.
5. Engage the upper blade to cut the fabric.
6. Select "B" on the Stitch Selector for 3-thread wave. (Select C for 3-thread rolled wave.)
7. Move the Wave/Overlock Selector lever from "OVERLOCK to "WAVE".
The stitch selection charts in the back of the manual have other combination of stitches such as:
・
6-Thread Wave - wide (cover stitch wide with 3-thread wave)
・ 6-Thread Wave - narrow(cover stitch narrow with 3-thread wave)
・ 5-Thread Wave - (chain stitch with 3-thread wave)
(For proper settings, see chart on page 88/89)
All these stitch combinations work in the same manner as the 7-Thread Wave Stitch. See next
page for illustrations of the various stitch combinations.
Note: Due to the change in the O-2 and upper looper telescopic antennae thread paths, always
sew the 7-thread Wave Stitch at a slow speed.
