Janome MyLock 654D Overlocker

Typical Janome top quality, the MyLock 654D makes fabric edging easy! With electronic speed control it is an advanced overlocker and has 2 needles allowing 2, 3 or 4 thread overlock stitching.

Incorporating the differential feed system of two feed dogs, the differential feed ratio, which is adjustable from .05 to 2.25, provides increased control for handling all types of fabrics and for creating desired special effects, for example lettuce edge hems on floaty lightweight fabrics, or gathering when needed. Yet, puckered edges on woven fabrics and stretched edges on knits are virtually eliminated.

Threading is a breeze due to colour-coded thread guides and nearly a self-threading lower looper. Simply lay the thread into the guide, flip a lever, and the lower looper is threaded. The guide is automatically returned to its normal position when you turn the balance wheel.

When you lift the presser foot for rethreading, the thread tensions are automatically released so you can draw the thread smoothly. The MyLock 654D also lets you quickly switch to rolled hemming without changing the needle plate, the rolled hem guide pre-tension conversion feature eliminates the need to change the needle plate, foot, or tension setting while rolled hemming seams.

The 654d has many adjustable settings, for example the dials on the right side control length and differential feed, you can view their settings in the relevant windows on the front. Also, there is a switch setting the lower looper tension for regular 2-4 thread overlock stitches, or rolled hemming. Another setting we like is the ability to disengage the fabric cutting if needed. The front flip down flap has storage for the included needle threader tool.

The needle and foot shaft are at a forward slant position, this gives the advantage of the foot lifting over any extra fabric layers or thicknesses it encounters while stitching multiple layers.

Other stitch functions include Pin tuck, Decorative over-edging, Gathering, Picot edging, 2 thread flatlock. 

Automatically Released Thread Tensions
By lifting the presser foot, the thread tensions are automatically released so that you can draw the threads smoothly when changing the threads. The Threads are Securely inserted between the tension disc when rethreading.

Easy Rolled Hem
There's no need to change the needle plate for rolled hemming. Just slide the needle plate setting knob to the "R" position to switch the chaining finger to that for rolled hemming.

2 Thread Edging
2-thread overlocking works well for rolled hem stitch with thick thread, flat lock stitch, and when overlock stitching stretch materials.

4 Thread Overlocking
Using 2-needles and 4-threads the 654D forms a lovely, neat looking overlock stitch suitable for most medium to heavyweight fabrics.

When you want to make the most of your sewing time, with professional results, the Janome 654D is unmatched.
