WHERE CAN I FIND MANUALS FOR JANOME SEWING MACHINES AND SERGERS? ALSO A THREAD GUIDE MAP FOR MERROW SERGERS?

I am surprised that I couldn't find threading directions in the manuals that I found. It appears to me that you can thread it the same way that you would thread a Juki DDL 555 or DDL 8700. Manuals on Line have several manuals but I couldn't find threading directions in them. Weird. Most sewing machines thread similarly whether they are home or industrial machines. Once in a while there will be an odd one. Sergers, etc are another matter but sewing machines are generally alike in their threading.

How to Thread Janome Sewing Machine

Step By Step Guide for How to Thread Janome Sewing Machine Easy Sewing For...

Hello, Lillian -

I checked the instruction manual available for the Janome 8002D serger through the Janome website:
https://www.janome.com/siteassets/support/manuals/sergers/inst-book-8002deng.pdf
and did not find a date of printing on the manual (which would give an idea for the year/s the model was manufactured.)

I also found the following information on one of the Janome web pages:
(Quote)
For consumers looking to date an antique New Home sewing machine that was made in Orange, MA or Rockford IL, please click here. We are sorry, but no other New Home or Janome sewing machines can be dated.
The only information we can provide is a date of manufacture if you have the following information:

• model number or style number
• serial number
• place of manufacture.

It looks like Janome still sells the model 8002D serger:

As for the value of the machine you are considering purchasing, you can get an idea of the price/s sellers are asking by looking at online sales of that model sewing machine. Here are some links:

Lauren How to Thread Serger

Machines generally thread the same. Sometimes they just look different and may have more options.

Hi Morehu, this Youtube video will help you with your problem:

You may need to rethread all the threads because most sergers need to be threaded in the right sequence. I looks like this one has to be threaded starting at the right and progressing left.

The manual is located on the manufacturer's website, here. Click "Specifications" then "Download Manual. It is a PDF.
