Discover the world of overlockers in a simplified way with Elna's es4 Serger. This lightweight and portable machine makes serging easier than you ever thought. The Elnita es4 overlocker has 2/3/4 thread serging, which sews up to 1300 stitches per minute, easy tension adjustments, and a user-friendly design. It offers the three most popular stitches that sergers use most: two-thread overlock, three-thread overlock, and four-thread overlock. You can even create gathers by adjusting the differential feed. The Elna es4 is fine-tuned to tolerate all types of fabrics, from ultra-lightweight to heavyweight and everything in between. This overlock model allows you to neatly cut, hem, and sew your projects for a professional-level finish at an affordable price.
COLOR-CODED THREAD PATH
Use the fool-proof Color-coded Thread Path System to quickly and efficiently thread your es4. Just follow the color indicators and lay the threads into the guides! Thanks to the automatic lower looper threading system, threading the lower looper is all too easy.
ADJUSTABLE DIFFERENTIAL FEED
Even with stretchy fabrics like knits and georgettes, you can easily create professional-level finishes by adjusting the differential feed. This feature allows you to fine-tune how the material is fed through your machine and helps to prevent puckering or distorting. It works by making the front and rear feed dogs move at different speeds. Set the dial to 1.0 for regular sewing, lower numbers for fine fabrics, and higher numbers for stretchy fabrics.
EASY THREAD TENSION
Thread tension should be properly adjusted to suit the various types of work. The ideal tension setting for most fabrics and threads is between 3 and 5. However, this can vary quite considerably when specialty threads are used. The thread must move easily and without resistance through the looper's eye. It's recommended that you tune the dials by quarter or half number increments, then test sew and check the results.
ADJUSTABLE Presser Foot PRESSURE
Sew a variety of fabric types and achieve perfect stitches every time using the adjustable presser foot pressure dial. To sew thick or stiff fabric like denim, apply more pressure. Reduce pressure when sewing lightweight fabrics such as sheer and knit fabrics.
Thread Cutter
Quickly and efficiently cut your thread tails in one easy motion with the built-in thread cutter. Best of all, you can do it one-handed!
