Overlock lights up the fabric how to fix it

Need advice! What to do if the machine “chews” knitwear?

Maybe someone has come across such a problem, help with advice! My machine is Brather Star. 65 (37 types of line, in t. H. And knitted), when buying, it was said that it takes thick fabrics and knitwear. Yes, and the instructions are also written. And in fact

Jeans on the seams slip through, and chews knitwear. I already bought knitwear needles and everything can do, there are still what.Then the settings are needed?

Turn off the overlock knife

Bend the edge of the bottom of the product to a standard width, 2. 3cm. So that this fishing line for the trimmer is clearer, you can slightly plow or sweep out.

An important condition for the bending on the overlock is the ability to turn off the overlock knife. In order to turn it off, first you need to pull the upper knife mechanism to the right, and turn up (to yourself) in this position, raise.

Maybe the thread is incorrectly seasoned or touches where the other, so it tears (spinning almost about it)? I completely got a joke yesterday, began to sew, overwhelmed half and the mustache cut off. I looked inside, and there were 2 threads in one hole in the gas station, and such a hole. What can barely tuck it into it, my husband looked at the grit herself, he did it, Yeahs corrected the thread, the husband decided to try it and it went without problems. Here is such a monster.

Yes, it seems that everything is right, I have already learned, still I think the threads. You need to buy specifically for overlock, more or less good.

You look at the light, the thread itself. It seems that the ideal sinned uneven. Try to tear with your hands. How easy the thread is at all tearing. I once bought a package of thread, at first I could not understand what constantly breaks off. Then the others rearranged, the difference was immediately visible immediately

I have this with a regular machine, the master said a factory marriage, even with a carriage. If I install the needle as it should, it beats about the platform almost immediately (((I got a little bit away from the center to put. And on the overlock, probably not to adjust it itself

At least you have a strip of threads, but my needles break the needles

At least you have a strip of threads, but my needles break the needles

And I can’t find the master. When I lived in another city, there was a master who repaired a penny, but alas, I moved and there is no phone phone, and I already think there is no master himself (it was a grandfather of years at 80)

Check the refueling of the threads. Try others.

You have in your lower part, where it is refueling, the sequence diagram of the thread refueling. And if the first thread is written for refueling the fourth or third. This is the only way to refuel it, otherwise it will tear. Ideal normal threads, the main thing is that all the coils are the same company. I sew them. And then, I sew biflexes and knitwear on three threads, t.E. The first one took off. I only have a model 007.

Thank you, now I will take the instruction, I’ll see. I don’t really like three on three, I only process the heightless cut with three threads. In general, I study, practice.

Just when four threads are one of the seams, as it were, grinds and it does not stretch on stretch fabrics, because it is used only on simple fabrics. You will open the lower poultor there the scheme, do not look in the instructions. And the instructions have a thread tension scheme. There is really the best position. I even caused by the settter after 4 years of intensified operation in the same way set numbers. Even now I’m afraid to touch them

Here God give you health, happiness, money and all the best! Two years. TWO YEARS. I was tormented with a cut of thread. Twisted forty times, while I started processing normally. Tears, dog, and all. Five hundred times with her husband, they had a fight during this time because of the overlock. The issue was resolved in a minute and a half after your message

Thank you very much! Yesterday I “cured” my overlock, refueling on your advice! And after all, it never occurred to what the dials are indicated near the gas station))

There may still be a burr on a needle that grinds the thread. Or an ear of a needle with a sharp edge. Try replacing the needle.

I have Merilok 005, the same story was also tried different and changed needles. As a result, I found somewhere on the forum that you need to refuel these overlings in the strict priority of threads. Oddly enough, it helped.

I have the same overlock, tears the threads in 2 cases, when the threads are not our domestic reinforced, the threads now buy only reinforced ones, under the number 45ll or 35ll, and in the case when the thread into the needles is inserted to the threads that go into the threadaries, and then Either straighten (curlter) all the threads with tweezers so that the tails are all separate from each other, or first season the threadaries, and only then insert into the needles

My overlock tore the thread when they were not very good quality. Then I bought others and everything became good.

Mine was naughty at first. Put the recommended tension on 4 all 4. Check the correctness of the refueling of all threads (step by step slowly, sometimes errors are made in the most primitive place) from the side you also have a zigzag switches, check that they were in recommended positions. After not at high speed, check the chain. If everything is well tried on the cloth, too at slow speed. Well, then boldly to the product. Still threads if they were lying for a long time have an expiration date, oddly enough. Air humidity and much more affect.

I noticed that if I scribble at slow speed, I can scribble for so long, everything is fine. But, if a little more, everything is a rubber, immediately tears. It seems to have replaced the needles, checked the sequence of refueling all the threads, tears exactly in the left needle. Today I got it so that I replaced the thread, in my opinion, with reinforced, it is worse. So never broke, but the seam is harsh. But the pajamas made it

You see on a small one scribbling normally, if something was wrong, then the speed has nothing to do with it. Try playing thread tension. Check the correctness of its refueling. Maybe it does not get between the plates. I looked at the photo from the right sticking to me, it seems a button. In any case, on my astralux she is. So it must be pressed with a thread of thread, it spreads the plates. The mud can still get stuck there. Paper sheet button and conduct for cleaning. Better, of course, a vacuum cleaner.

Here the principle is like that of a sewing machine, either not the correct refueling, or the needle with a thread something hurts and the thread grinds or the needle is dull. If the threads themselves are not just torn with your hands, then the matter is in the typewriter. So 1 check the gas station, 2 change the needle, and if it does not help, then only the master will configure. And sometimes it helps. I don’t know why, lubrication and cleaning of the machine.

Thank you very much, I seemed to be adopted. We had no masters. I will order the threads this week, I changed the needles.

Blink of the lower thread

The lower thread is confused if the lower thread breaks off, first of all, disassemble the shuttle move. Perhaps you will find there such a picture.

The bobbin is rarely tilted incorrectly by anyone pays attention to refueling the thread from the bobbin to the bobbin. The machine was always good and suddenly, when sewing expensive and delicate fabric, it began to skip and break the thread. Check if you are correctly refueling it into a bobbin cap. It is advisable to focus on the refueling scheme of the instructions to your typewriter.

Strong tension of the lower thread often adjust the tension of the lower thread does not need. To do this, it is better to loosen or increase the tension of the upper thread. But if you needed to adjust the tension in a bobbin cap, do it carefully. Half-cost of the screw is the maximum value of its delay or weakening.

The lower thread is incorrectly tilted incorrectly, it should come not only under the plate, but be sure to. As in the right photo. Otherwise, she can jump out and get confused in a shuttle.

DIY Overloks setting and repairing and repairing.

Overlock even household is much more complicated than sewing machines and configure it, especially, to carry out an overlock repair without special knowledge and skills is almost impossible. However, overlock repair or adjustment is not always required, sometimes it is enough just to adjust the tension of the threads and it will again be high.Quality wrapping in the fabric. Some overlocks are very sensitive to setting up the thread, and when switching to others in quality, you have to reconfigure their tension.

Some instructions provide for the repair of the overlocks, their adjustment and the settings of the installation of loopers and needles are given in the event of a malfunction of these gaps or the replacement of the buttonholes. As a rule, they are indicative, ideal. The master who performs the repair of overlocks has to experimentally bring them to the desired value, so this type of repair is recommended to a professional.

All our recommendations in the Overlok Repair Service section are generalized and are suitable for any overlock model, but do not forget to carefully read the instructions for your model, where you can find information on configuration, lubrication, needles and more.

Passes and a deaf knock. A needle swept or bent

If you have gaps or a deaf knock. This is more likely to swept or a needle bent.

Defects of the tip of the needle: A. Stupid cut; b. Curved tip; in. Normal point.

Dumb needle can cause many problems. The needle for the overlock is a very important detail, many parameters depend on its condition, in particular the gap of the needle with the buttonhole. The main parameter of the estimated line without gaps. The dull needle can be determined by running the thumb with the right hand along the needle from the flask to the end. The nail will definitely find a curved place on the tip. Can be used to inspect the magnifier.

If the needle is bent, do not try to straighten it, the overlock settings are very accurate and do not allow the use of such needles. To check the condition of the needle, put it with the flat side on the flat surface.

Inspect the needle from above and from the sides: 1. Parallel clearance. 2. Flat surface (glass and t.P.)

Use for overlock only the needle recommended by the plant

Pay special attention to what type of needle is installed in your overlock. Required condition. The use of only recommended by the manufacturer of needles.

In addition to the fact that needles can be with a round or sawn flask, they can still differ in the length and thickness of the flask, the length of the needle itself and other parameters. If in your overlock, needles with a round flask are used, you need to put a needle with the same thickness and length of the flask when replacing. The dimensions and types of needles used are indicated in the instructions, sometimes they are on the sticker inside the overlock. It is best to write down the type of needles on a small piece of paper and glue it with transparent tape on the case. In any household overlock, the needle is installed with a long groove. On itself, or the sawn part of the flask. Push. You should definitely install a needle all the way, and if you have two needles, then they are located with a displacement (one above the other).

After long work, you should clean the compartment of the buttonholes and other affordable places from scraps, honors, etc.P., preferably a hard hair brush (for glue).

The thickness and elasticity of the thread for overlocks play an important role

Threads for overlocks play a crucial role in the process of formation of a regional savor. If you use threads of different quality or thickness. This will immediately affect the tension and therefore will change the drawing of the line. Overlock is very sensitive to tension, and the slightest change in one thread can affect all the rest. It is ideal to use the threads of the same brand, changing only colors. But in practice, this is rare, therefore, when replacing threads with another type or thickness, we recommend weakening all tensioners and at the very slow speed, gradually increase the tension of each thread, periodically checking which thread, and how much, pull up. Sometimes, when setting up a line of overlock, you can use different colors of the thread, for the clarity of adjustment of the tension of each, and then install the necessary.

Try not to use x \ B or thickened threads. The thinner and more elastic the thread, the easier it passes in the hidden fabric, needles, buttonholes and a high.Quality line.

Overlock lubrication should be paid more attention than a sewing machine

Lubrication of overlocks should be performed at least 1 time every six months, and with intensive use 1 time per month. It is advisable to use a medical syringe for this, instead. A long needle can always crawl into hard.To.Reach places, and spend less oil. Excess oil in the needle area can ruin the processed fabric. Try to carefully lubricate the nodes that have contact with the fabric. The instructions include a lubricant scheme, but you can make it a rule. Lubricate any available places where there are friction of metal parts, even if they are not indicated by the factory. In order to carefully grease all the overlock nodes, sometimes it is necessary to remove the protective covers of the case, but if it is difficult to remove them, you can do with factory lubrication marks for lubrication. The grease of the overlock should be paid more attention than the sewing machine, since the overlock works at high speeds and the lack of lubrication in some nodes leads to their overheating and even jamming.

List of the main faults of overlocks:

The fabric does not move: the pressure of the clamping paw is too weak. If the fabric is too thin, then the pressure must be reduced, otherwise the fabric will be collected. When hugging thick fabrics, the clamping of the paw should increase. Basically, the paws should not be changed if there is no obvious need for this.

I also work with an overlock recently, I didn’t have such problems. Although I work with knitwear a lot. I have several options. First, change the needles to knitted. Second. The overlock should have a tissue tension regulator, sometimes its reconfiguration helps. Third, as I understand it, you have a 4-thread, try to remove one needle and make a three-nickname, sometimes it also helps.

I’ll try according to the points: 1) this is the fourth stitched knitted thing and there was no problem before the problem.I have already changed the needles for new ones and for knitwear I take Super Stretch-75/11. 2) you mean-disferential?Twist. 3) As explained to me in the store when buying an overlock-4th thread for connecting parts.Three threads are simple overpowing.Or is it not?In three threads, I just did not try the losen on physical education-the seam is stronger.

No, 4 thread gives two lines for connecting parts, 3 thread one connection. I sew on my knitwear as on a three.Ninitic, I like it more and I don’t even stink the details additionally. It turns out a good seam.

Family ML645D.New.He was taken to the master to adjust, t.To the dream tore the thread.After the problem was not.

Family ML645D.New.He was taken to the master to adjust, t.To the dream tore the thread.After the problem was not.

I don’t complain about the seam.I guess I’ll take it again to the master, I don’t want to sew a scythe.Factory adjustment is absent completely.It’s good that 2 years of warranty.

It’s easy to pull it out of the machine seam, but I can’t imagine from the overlock how. You can get tormented with a living if the needle falls into the thread.

The needles are the same? And the threads are different in quality? I understand that the threads are different in color? There is a chance that in quality. My Melok11 had such a problem: if the threads are different, then it was looping

Threads of one company and numbers.Perhaps for such a material you need special.And the colors are different-3 coils of black and 1 white.

It’s all about the material. Somehow it was necessary to process a “oil” dress with a steering wheel. Catastrophe!, But after drinking, she somehow turned, although before that there was a dress also from “Oil! Tried to sweep two layers together?

And it may be necessary to increase the pressure of the foot, ate knitwear leaves? At the same time, not much stretch (or a lot) if it will wise. The iron with the steam solves everything

And what kind of overlock you have? I have a four-nin Brother and sews everything in a row without a change in needles (silk, knitwear, jeans, drape, etc.D.).

I wrote a little higher. Look please. Praised as one of the most reliable.I have no machine machine-adults.

And what kind of overlock you have? I have a four-nin Brother and sews everything in a row without a change in needles (silk, knitwear, jeans, drape, etc.D.).

And the model tell me please, I apologize for not

One.You do not adjust the tension of the threads (for each type of fabric it is different). 2. Adjust the stitch length regulator and feed differential.

The matter is that I adjusted.In a straight section along the shared seam smooth.A little pattern away from the shared and went.

Well I do not know. I didn’t have such problems. I have been sewing from an early age.To. Mom (a cutter and a seamstress with 40 years old), now I have my own studio.

Do not listen to anyone! They explained everything correctly in the store, 3 threads are simple overwhelming slices, 4 threads also stealing parts. I used to sew with 3 needles before, I thought the seam softer, more and more. And then the seams began to burst, was tortured to sew up. Even the post created the same problem on this issue with knitwear, I recently bought. It was called “Crystal”, very thin, with brilliance, 100% synthetics for sure. So, while she sewed her daughter training slices with a bous and a swimsuit almost went crazy, the same whistle as yours. I left it as it is, an awl with 4 needles. Does not spread and okay, everything looks decent from the face. An experienced seamstress told me that this is such a knitwear, they are only sewing in production. It is necessary to adapt, play settings, or stabilize. The machine is not to blame and everything is in order tighten all the buttonholes.

Why 3 thread is simple overwhelming? I also have 4 thread, I sew knitwear on a three-ninitic and I have grimacing. And the seam is very good. Overlock company, however, is different. But does it depend on it? By the way, what I remembered! When she sewed a swimsuit, on the biflex also hesed to adjust the settings. And in the end, everything was also sewn with a three.Plate.

The seamstress said and read it in some kind of instruction. I also used to sew a lot of t.Shirts and pants/sliders diverged. Now I sew all with two needles, tired of sewing up. And the biflex is with a bang sews with three and four threads, there were no problems at all.

Nothing diverges. When I have to open up, I even suffer, so FIG knows. Indeed, you can get to everything by trial and errors.

My mother still advised me: investing fabric between napkins or newspaper. When stitching, napkins or newspaper do not allow fabric to stretch, and then easily removed (t.To. Pierced with a needle). I tried it myself, really easy!

I only start to sew and found such a video on YouTube, it can help. So far you can’t post a link.You can dial in Yandax in the search engine.How to set over overlock and how to sew knitwear. Youtube and see Vidio

Our tips on sewing knitwear.I really liked the articles, I share the address: sewing from knitwear-forum helping. So dial in the search engine.Professions probably Nika, and we are good for us for teapots.

I have such a problem when I season the overlock by domestic (not industrial) threads, industrial nitches on large bobbins, which sew on sewing companies

Why is the upper thread torn?

Do not immediately go for help to the wizard for the repair of sewing machines. Such a problem may arise for the following reasons:

• Thread tension. It is worth trying to loosen the upper thread, and then tighten the regulator to the required level. Also, the material can be torn due to weak tension when the nodules are formed.
• The thread does not fit the size of the needle. When working at large speeds, the thread can get stuck in the ear and break. Sometimes the material has poor quality, so thickening is twisted and arise. Threads need to choose good even experienced craftswomen sometimes can make an error when refueling, so this moment is also worth checking sometimes the needle does not fit the selected fabric. In some situations, it is incorrectly installed.

Description of problems and instructions to eliminate them

The application of the following recommendations and instructions will solve problems with the skipping of stitches when working on the overlock.

Changing the thickness of the fabric

A common problem is when an overlock passes the stitches when switching to several layers of fabric. As soon as the total thickness of the fabric has increased, the skills of the stitch appear. In this case, the tension of the needle thread is reduced when the tissue is switched to several layers.

When the site is passed, it is necessary to return the tension of the thread to the previous position. You need to work slowly so as not to miss the right moment.

This method is only suitable for adjusting the working overlocks. If the line gives omissions on one layer of fabric, then the reason is not in the tension of the thread.

Dumb or bent needle

Even a slight curvature will lead to a passage of stitches. The reason for the curvature: the buttonhole and the nose of the shuttle of the overlock is beaten into the needle, and under this effect it is deformed. When working on the overlock, dull knocks appear when tissue tissue.

It is very difficult to visually determine the curvature, so you can check the bent in the way shown in the picture.

The second way to determine bent: on a dark surface, quickly scroll through the needle. If the tip does not change the position and remains in one place, then it is even.

Checking the needle for bent in such ways, the reason for passing the stitch is revealed.

Dumb needle will cause the seam unevenness and the passage of the stitches. Sharp effect affects the gap between the button loop, obtaining the correct estimated seam without gaps. The tip is checked in two ways.

Through the magnifying glass, consider the tip. If the tip is rounded on the bar, then the needle is stupid.

Run the thumb fingernail along the tip from the flask to the tip. If the tip is deformed at the end of the needle, then the nail will find a blunt.

You can not use needles with defects or rust, since their use leads to negative consequences:

Low.Quality or incorrectly selected needle

Each overlock is attached to operating instructions that indicate the type, brand and thickness of the needles recommended for this model. Dimensions depend on the thickness of the fabric and threads.

Unlike sewing machines, overlock needles have significant differences. The shape, the diameter of the flask can be thinner or thicker, and the length is shorter or longer. Such differences affect some overlock settings, failures are possible, including the skills of the stitch.

High.Quality needles are made of high.Strength steel that do not bend, but break when trying to bend it. When choosing materials, there should be a “golden mean”. This is the correspondence of a needle, thread and fabric. Low.Quality needle on complex, stronger fabrics forms the passage of the stitch. In this case, it is worth changing it and the passes will disappear.

Error when installing a needle

Incorrect installation will lead to damage to the needle. If when installing a new line is not formed, or formed, but with a large number of passes, then it is installed incorrectly.

• Prepare a needle recommended by the instruction manual;
• The sharpening of the flask should be located in the direction of “from yourself”, and a long groove, where the thread is refuel. “from itself”;
• The needle should reach the stops and clearly stand up.

When replacing two needles, the installation is carried out in the same way, but the right needle will be several millimeters above the left.

Cutting mechanisms

After working with the fabric, especially with knitwear, the overlock is strongly contaminated because the knife cuts off the remains, and they fall into the inside of the overlock.

The threads are wrong or poorly tilted

Special threads are produced for overlocks, so any, including for sewing machines, can not be used. Material, thickness and quality affect the tension of the thread.

Low.Quality or incorrectly selected threads will lead to a passage of stitches or in general to their absence.

The display of the needleman

In the process of work, the needle can fall into the needle plate, and not into the hole intended for it.

Since the speed is high during operation, when the material is supplied, a sharp blow occurs: the needle rests, and the overlock mechanism still crushes. Thus, an needler shift occurs.

Когда игловодитель оверлока смещается, игла становится выше и петлитель не попадает в отверстие, поэтому стежки не получатся.

If the displacement is small, then the sting of the buttonhole partially captures the thread, so the passes of the stitches are formed.

In that case, it is important to get the position of the needlerer in which the buttonhole flies into the loop with his sting.

The elimination of such a problem requires the professionalism and knowledge of the internal structure of the overlock, so it is better to contact the master.

Problems with a paw

From a long.Term mark, the crush foot can begin to press the fabric poorly. When the fabric is poorly pressed, the skills of the stitches are obtained. To eliminate this problem, it is recommended to adjust the foot pressure spring.

The appearance of backlash

If the passes began to form gradually, and over time they became more and more, then this is a sign of backlash. That is, a gap between the mechanisms appeared, and the larger the backlash, the more often the passes of the stitches on the overlock become.

The approach to eliminating the problem is this: to check all the connections that are responsible for the movement and transmission of rotating moments, and tightly tighten.

The shift of the cang clamp

In some models of overlocks, especially Soviet or Russian.Made, the needle retention is a zangic clamp. If you pour a zanging clamp or give it, then it crushes, and it will not work to put a new needle to the end. In this case, the nut turns out, and the petal petals are divorced. After that, the needle reaches the stop and clearly gets up.
