Question about Baby Lock Imagine

2 Answers

Sews too fast

My overlocker sews way too fast making it impossible to turn corners neatly. I read an article on line some time ago by a service agent who described the adjustment needed to the footswitch to slow it down but I am now unable to find the article again. It contained clear illustrations and appeared very simple. Does anyone have this information? thanks

Have actually solved the problem now. there is an on line page which describes pulling the foot switch apart and adjusting the speed control slider for a BabyLock Evolve machine and this solution worked perfectly for the Imagine despite dire warnings from the importer not to do this. Babylocker

I need a manual for a empisal companion 300 overlocker
An overlocker, also known as a serger, is a sewing machine that is used to finish the edges of fabric and create professional-looking seams. It works by using multiple threads to simultaneously sew and overcast the edges of the fabric to prevent fraying.
To use an overlocker, you will need to:
  1. Thread the machine according to the manual or the diagram provided on the machine.
  2. Set the machine to the desired stitch and adjust the tension of the threads as needed.
  3. Place the fabric under the presser foot and guide it through the machine as it sews.
If you are experiencing any issues with your Empisal Companion 300 overlocker, there are a few things you can try:
  1. Make sure that the machine is threaded correctly.
  2. Check the tension of the threads and adjust as needed.
  3. Make sure that the needle is inserted properly and tightened to the correct tension.
  4. Clean the machine and check for any debris or lint that may be causing problems.
I hope this information is helpful. If you have any specific questions or issues with your overlocker, don't hesitate to ask.

Baby lock protege serger 4th thread doesn’t tie in
Try rethreading it using the order: 3, 4, 2, 1. If you are threading it in the wrong order it will give you problems. Afterwards, you will need to carefully adjust the tension controls. This can be done more easily using four different colored threads.

My janome overlocker is making a loud noise but then something seems to 'let go' and it sews quietly then the noise starts again?
I have a feeling that there is a bent part on your machine, my Brother 1034d had a bent presser foot shaft, and did this. Sewing parts online, saved me a lot of money by letting me buy a new one for a reasonable price and my husband installed.

When machine quilting sews fine when moving forward, skips stitches when moving away
Check your needle. Make sure it is not blunt, try a Size 90 Topstitch needle or Embroidery needle. If you are using a thread thicker than regular piecing weight, you need a needle with a larger eye and a larger scrarf - the hollowed out bit at the back of the needle. Also don't sew too fast nor change direction too sharply. If you need to do a sharp turn, let the machine "mark time" once at the turn before moving off in the new direction.
