Frequently Asked Questions - Melanie VERITAS

How to thread the lower looper thread (red)?
Place the spool on the pin. Insert the thread into the thread guide from the back, form an S-loop on the rod, pass through the guides, then thread through the lower looper hole using tweezers. Turn the handwheel to raise the looper by 5 to 10 mm and use the automatic threader.
How to adjust thread tension?
Use the tension dials for each thread (green upper looper, red lower looper, blue right needle, yellow left needle). Tension is correct if looper threads cross at the fabric edge. Adjust according to stitch defects.
What to do if the needle breaks?
Check that needles are not bent or dull. Install them correctly (flat side to the back, fully inserted). Use ELx705 needles. Do not pull the fabric while sewing.
How to replace the light bulb?
Unplug the machine, set the switch to 'O'. Loosen the screw of the bulb cover, remove the cover, unscrew the bulb and replace with a new 230-240 V / 15 W bulb. Replace the cover and tighten the screw.
How to clean and oil the machine?
Unplug the machine. Remove dust and lint regularly. Oil the indicated points with a few drops of oil (ref. ELx705). Use the brush for cleaning.
What to do if the fabric puckers (for knit fabrics)?
Adjust the differential feed between N and 8 in the stretch zone. Guide the fabric lightly. Check that tension is not too high.
How to make a hem with the machine?
Use setting 'R' for the feed and a right needle. Set tension: needle thread 3, upper looper 4, lower looper 6. Stitch length 1.5 mm. Please refer to the instructions in the manual.
How to lower or raise the upper knife?
To raise: open the looper cover, press the knife support to the right until it stops, turn the knob clockwise until it clicks. To lower: press the button on the right and turn forward until it clicks into cutting position.
How to undo an overlock seam?
Cut the thread loops with sharp scissors. Pull the needle threads to release the seam.
What to do if the machine does not work?
Check that the power cord is properly plugged in and the main switch is set to 'I'. If the problem persists, contact after-sales service.

DIE MUTTER DER PSYCHOANALYSE/ MOTHER OF PSYCHOANALYSIS

Melanie

VERITAS Melanie - Melanie - 1

natural_image Black-and-white photo of an adult and a child painting on easels in a modest room, no visible text or symbols

She set an important milestone in the still young science of psychotherapy: Melanie Klein was the first to uncover the psychic life of children. Her work in the 1920th discovered and then defined the essential significance of the relation between infants and their attachment figures like their mother. With her groundbreaking studies, she is recognized as the founder of object relation theory and – together with Sigmund Freud – as one of the main pioneers in psychoanalysis.

Nähprobe

Trial sewing/threadtension

Echantillon de couture

After threading make a trial run. Always use a double layer of fabric in order to be able to check the stitch formation and thread tension properly.

  • Switch the machine on "I".
  • Set all tension dials to 3.
  • Raise the front of the presser foot slightly with your thumb and position the fabric under the foot just up to the knife.
  • Sew.
  • At the end of the seam continue sewing a 8cm (4") long thread chain.
  • Cut the thread chain and remove work.

Check your trial run

1 Upper looper thread (green)
2 Lower looper thread (red)
3 Right needle thread (blue)
4 Left needle thread (yellow)

Perfect stitch formation is when both looper threads meet at the fabric edge. The needle threads form straight stitches for a stretchy and durable seam.

Thread tension adjustments may be required depending on the type of fabric and thread being used.

  • Higher number = longer stitch, lower number = shorter stitch.
  • Basic stitch length = N.

Largeur de coupe

- The cutting width should be adjusted according to the type of fabric being sewn. Check the seam each time and adjust the cutting width accordingly.

Adjusting the cutting width:

  • Open cloth plate cover.
  • Turn cutting width dial.
  • Clockwise to move knife to the left (for heavier fabrics).
  • Counter-clockwise to move the knife to the right (for lighter fabrics).

There are two feed dogs: one front and one rear. The two feed dogs move independently and the distance each feed dog travels during one complete movement can be adjusted. Note: When sewing without differential feed the dial should be on position N.

Allongement

To stretch the fabric select a number from N to 5 in the section . " " This prevents fine nylon jerseys or closely woven fabrics from puckering.

Effet de fronçage

To prevent waving or to gather select a number from N to 8 in the section " [\~\~]". This prevents waving or fluting in knits or puckers in fine woven fabrics. It also can be used to gather single layers of fine woven fabric.

Fronçage \*

Use the differential feed to gather a single layer of fabric. For example sleeve heads, yokes, lace edging or frills.
