Working with the L 4 Series Overlockers
Working with the L 4 Series overlockers means saving time and stitching fast. Sewing projects take shape quickly and with little effort. Innovative features make BERNINA overlockers delightfully easy to use, ensuring professional quality down to the very last stitch. The overlocker is the perfect machine to give your knit and woven projects that professional look inside and out.
EASE OF USE
Settings are adjustable while sewing, including the thread tensions, the cutting width from 3 to 9mm and the stitch length from 0.8 to 4 mm. Effortlessly change the differential feed to ensure wave-free seams in knits and no puckering in fine fabrics. A manual needle threader allows for easy and ergonomic threading. The colour-coded threading paths as well as the lower looper threader support your quick threading.
ACCESSORIES
The most commonly used accessories are located in the looper cover, neatly arranged and ready to be used. The additional accessory box holds the seam guide, spool caps and tools. A range of optional feet for your creative overlocking are available.
MICRO THREAD CONTROL (mtc)
Micro Thread Control (mtc) makes over-the-edge thread loops disappear with a quick flip of a lever. This saves time and effort while ensuring consistent high-quality stitches, professional seams and finished edges.
ULTIMATE COMFORT
The well-lit, large workspace eases sewing as well as threading of loopers and needles. The L 460 also includes the BERNINA Free Hand System (FHS) that lowers and temporarily raises the presser foot, allowing both hands to be free for sewing and placing the fabric. The slide-on table expands the work space to support larger sewing projects (standard with the L 460, option available for the L 450).
DC MOTOR AND BERNINA FOOT CONTROL (L 460)
The BERNINA Foot Control, in combination with the DC motor, provides outstanding stitch-by-stitch speed control at up to 1,500 stitches per minute. Professional seams and hems of the highest stitch quality are produced in no time. The automatic needle stop up ensures the needles and loopers are always in the correct position for threading. Use the back-kick function of the BERNINA Foot Control to set the needle stop up or down for precise stitching and stopping.
