1. Turn off and flip open the cover on your overlock machine. Make sure the machine’s power switch is set to the off position. Flip the looper cover door down, which is the door in the bottom right-hand corner of the front of the machine, to expose the threading pathway loops and hooks.
The threading pathway loops and hooks are what you have to pass the thread through to set up your machine.
Some overlock machines have handy tools on the inside of the looper cover door that you can use to help you thread it. For example, you might find a pair of tweezers, a screwdriver, and a needle threading tool.
