Brother 884-B02 Operating Instructions Manual

If threads break during sewing

Remove the material and re-thread in the correct

order, Lower looper, Upper looper, right needle and

then the left needle (to re-thread, see CHAPTER

3 "Threading"). Replace the material under the

presser foot and sew 3-5 cm (1-1/8 to 2 inches)

over the previous stitches.

CAUTION

Do not leave straight pins in the fabric when

sewing as they will damage the needles and

knives.

To sew ﬁ ne materials

1. Adjust the presser foot pressure to prevent the

material from puckering and to allow sewing

of curves. (See CHAPTER 1 "Adjusting the

presser foot pressure".)

2. Loosen the thread tension, but remember that if

the tension is too loose, the thread may break

and stitches may be skipped.

The Narrow overlock/Rolled hemming stitch is

a decorative ﬁ nish for lightweight to midweight

fabrics. It is often used to complete the edge of

a fabric. This stitch is sewn by removing the left
