Here's a manual for the 1150. It's probably close enough to your model.

SOURCE: Threading a bernina serger
Here is a little jingle to remember as far as the order of threads to thread...
Upper looper, lower looper, left needle, right.
Usuall if you give numbers to the threads from left to right as 1,2,3,4 , you would thread it in the order of 3, 4, 2, 1 . Also when threading the loopers be sure the lower looper thread goes over the top of the upper looper thread as it goes out the back.
Hope this helps.

From what I have read this manual is less than desirable. Neither is the one for the brand that I have.
You may have better guidance if you purchase and use Nancy Zieman's "Serge with Confidence". I have found it very helpful.
For the two thread rolled hem, the looper cover is used to "trick" the looper into "thinking" it is threaded.
On my serger (not a Bernina), this is referred to as a "subsidiary looper". It is a spring type mechanism that fits in a small hole at the top of the upper looper.
You use a rolled edge presser foot; right or left needle; stitch length @ normal or wider; stitch length @ 1mm for the left needle/0.5 for the right needle; differential feed @ normal; needle tension - tighten; lower looper tension - normal or looser; two thread looper cover - engaged.
Test and adjust the tension as needed before making the rolled hem on your garment.
I hope this helps.
