Thank you very much for this tutorial 😊. I have this same model overlock machine for 2 years now, but I still don't know how to adjust the tension properly. I learned a lot from this tutorial. 💯 🙂

How do you raise the pressure foot to get thicker fabric under it?

[@MontavillaSewing]

If you push up on the presser foot lever when it's fully raised you should get a little bit more lift, but I would caution putting too much fabric under this machine as it is more of an entry level serger and isn't designed for heavy duty applications.
