Baby Lock Protege BL402 serger

Just received machine and there is no manual...  I'm having trouble getting it to sew...  cannot find a bottom thread bobbin --is there suppose to be one? Thanks --also, do you know where I could find a manual?

  • Anonymous Feb 04, 2009

    I bought this same machine in l995 and have only used it a half dozen times.....because it is so difficult to thread. The only times I've used it were when the saleslady helped me get it threaded. If I had it to do over again I would never have bought it! When threaded correctly it works just fine but no sewing machine should be that difficult to thread!

How to set up baby lock protefe

Do you mean the BabyLock Protege Serger? Apparently the BabyLock BL402 (Protege) was also sold as the Riccar 739DE. Manuals Lib has the Riccar manual here: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/545656/Riccar-739de-Serger.html . You will need to complete a Captcha if you want to download the manual as a PDF.

I hope this helps. You can also find YouTube videos on using several BabyLock sergers. These may help you set up the serger.

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.

I am having trouble with my baby lock protege BL402. The thread keeps breaking. I have tried working with the tension but nothing seems to work. Any suggestions?

Tension can go bad but if your tension is right I would investigate the thread quality and if it is going through all the channels correctly, thread quality is my bet

I have a baby lock protege and have had it for years with no problems. All of the sudden it is not making the loop stitch at all!, only straight stitching. What could be wrong, I have re-thread it several...

This is a timing issue and without the service manual and specialist gauges you will very likely break a looper in any attempt to DIY....the cost of a replacement looper is around the same as a service, so do it a favour and get it done properly....they will also give it a good thorough clean and lube.
