Hi abi, I’ve tried following your tutorial from starting fresh. But every time I start it, the thread comes out on the bottom two or it gets tangled. Can you help me or someone else?

I am in the process of threading my machine after my first attempt over a year ago, and I will use you comment as motivation because my hands and neck are cramping because of that yellow thread. update: I used two tweezers and bargained with the spirit of my locker machine to cooperate and now I got it

Thank you SO MUCH for this video 😁😁😁. You saved my brand new overlocker's life - I was just about to throw it off the balcony from my 4th floor flat out of sheer frustration! I had overlooked to catch the little hook by the lower looper with the yellow thread and without knowing about that little hook, the instruction manual was unclear and confusing. I've only done one small test strip, but so far, so good, and it appears to be working fine. Thank you again for such a detailed and informative video, without your help, I would have definitely gone crazy!

I have a Singer overlocker from Lidl (14sh 754 I think) which I had sat in the cupboard for a long time before I plucked up the courage to use it!! When I did pluck up courage, because I had heard awful tales of doom regarding the threading, I was pleased with the instructions but the photos on mine told me nothing! However, once I had worked out how to thread the lower looper I wasn't worried any more and threading became easy. It stitches a dream.

thank you so very much for this video. I hope that you will make a lot more on this machine. I don't know what I did wrong, turned some of the wheels not properly , it no longer stitches correctly. I must say that your video is so much better than the one on the singer website.

That was a great tip thank you, I had run out of thread on one of the thread reels that came with the machine it was taking me ages to check the book and to make sense of where the hooks were even though it is coloured coded I was getting it twisted on one looper, eventually I did get it correct after many hours yes hours, anyhow will certainly being it the way you have described in your video for next time as certainly is a much quicker way. I expect threading is everyone's pet hate for the overlocker/serger,

I don't normally mind threading an overlocker. I always advise my students to thread again and again, just for practice. I'm sorry it's taken hours Robert, that's frustrating for you, but we all start somewhere, I hope I have helped.

Thank you for this video. I just got a new Singer Overlocker and have been trying to thread it. I've worked hours doing it, because just as I think it was threaded correct it wasn't looping at all, all I would get is just a long string of threads or it would work for a minute and then go back to the long string of threads again. So now I'm going to keep this video on and watch and do this step by step.

Having just purchased this Overlocker I realise that, whilst it is very similar to the other Lidl machines such as the 14SH754, there do not appear to be any additional items specifically dedicated to this model. For example, I can’t find overlocker feet dedicated to the S010L. In your opinion am I safe in thinking that anything on the Singer site which is dedicated to the 14SH754 will also be compatible with the S010L? Why do they do this?

Hi Abi, thanks so much for making this video. I did manage to thread mine eventually at the weekend but I don't like the machine.....wish I'd got the Jaguar or Janome I originally looked at. That knife placement is horrible (it's really hard to move and its bracket is in the way), has no scrap bucket, there's not much lift in the presser foot and I found it so hard to serge in a straight line (that I'd marked on fabric). Seriously thinking about returning it & just waiting to get the one want, when I've mastered my sewing machine 😬

You could use two threads, like a sewing machine but the adapter pings out of this machine easily, and you cannot get a replacement if it breaks or you lose it. I’d recommend the singer s14-78 or the necchi over this model

I just have a *question* though; This Lidl overlocker thing is very new to me. Does Lidl stock overlockers only once a year only??? Is it only singer brand that they stock??? And finally, Does Lidl only stock singer models that have been specifically manufactured for them or do they stock other normal models of singer overlockers too (ones that other shops stock too)??? Your help IS SOO APPRECIATED! 🤗
